caz41 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 What's everyone using to lube shotguns. Not trying to start a "what's best" thread but merely seeing what others are doing. I think I've read everything from synthetic motor oil to slide glide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Gundry Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) My M1 gets an occasional shot of BreakFree CLP on the bolt and carrier rails - runs flawlessly with even the extra light loads, cleans easily, and no excessive wear after ~2k rounds. Good shooting yesterday Chris! Edited July 15, 2013 by Dave Gundry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Payne Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Mobile 1, I can't remember but I think it was 5w40 or something like that. I just use the excess from when I change the oil on my FJ Cruiser. I use it on all of my weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJW Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I usually have FireClean, Militec, or Friction Defense around—they always show up in shooter's bags at matches. That's kept my M2 running pretty smoothly. Lube the bolt/carrier like an AR and put a drop at the hinge of the shell lifter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StealthyBlagga Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Versa Max: White lithium grease on the receiver rails. M Pro 7 oil on other moving parts. Keep the magazine tube/spring/follower clean and dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thecelt Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 i typically use one of 3 depending on what i grab first. either synthetic motor oil, rem oil, or clp. never used grease, but since i dont typically get much dirt in my guns i may try some white lithium on the rails to see how i like it. but ive heard some people talk about the mag tubes to either run them dry, use a like coat of some type of oil, or use dry lube. i typically use a very light coating from the rem oil wipes on the follower and spring, but i think im going to try some dry lube for the heck of it and see if i notice a difference. i know on my semi auto with detachable mags i never lube the mags at all.
