Postal Bob Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Mobil 1 5W-30. I use it on everything gun related. It never flings off or dries up from the heat of the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingchef Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I made my own using a NLGI-0 grease. Not a big fan of oil. I like my lube to stay on the pistol, not my glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihocky2 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 For major matches I like to make a fresh batch of bacon in the morning and add a little of the grease while still hot to all moving parts. The extra heat helps it penetrate on the molecular level. Guaranteed to improve you times. Or at worst slow everyone down while they are busy trying to figure out who is cooking bacon on the range. Beware on hard surfaces though, the drool can make them a little slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomore606 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Frog lube and call it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob01 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Started using Hornady TAP HD-Extreme I got off a prize table and it really works well. Sprayed on the rails and other friction points it lets the pistol run great without getting oil all over the place. Doesn't take alot. Worth a look. http://www.hornady.com/store/TAP-One-Shot-Extreme-with-4x-Protection-2-Oz-Pump-999351/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSteel Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) All these answers are great but you still haven't got the Snizzle.... If you run a real tit (sic) STI in the hills and farm valleys of Vermont, there really is only 1 choice!!!.....

I have had hunting dogs chewed up, calves torn up by feral dogs, etc., and the stuff just flat heals them. Best to ignore the instructions and just grab a fistful of it and slather it in, on and all around the cut/wound. Really, it is great great stuff.

Service Desk Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Based on the "There are more good tools ruined through neglect than use" reasoning, just about any lubricating oil will work. How well you perceive it to work is where the obsession commences. Gun oil threads are like motorcycle oil threads... Well visited and inconclusive..

Ah0386 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Mix 5qts of Mobil 1 5w-20 and 1qt of Castor GTX 10w-40. Run it in a motor, at temp for 7 mins. Drain it into a clean aluminum pan (a plastic one will not work, as those heated hydrocarbons with adhere to the plastic). Immediately add 6 cups of M2C-33G approved automatic transmission fluid, as the polyalphaolefins molecules in the engine oil will bond with the ATF's kinematic viscosity modifiers, to produce what is know as a polypalesian compound. After cooling at room temperature in humidity less than 70% (if your in humidity greater then 70% 8oz of organic vegetable oil will need to be added), remove the top layer of oil (as this is where the majority of the monopalesian compound will collect, as the polyalesian compound is heavier) and discard. The remaining mixture is the best lube for an STI. You'll see best results if you use within 7-8 months, as the compound bonding will begin to separate and you can start to get oxidilysis.
