What slide lube ?

Lucas extreme duty gun oil. I put on all friction spots, rack the slide a few times and wipe off what ever has creeped out the rear of the slide.

Currently Battleborn HP Pro, because I was given it.

 

Previously Castrol 0w/50 synthetic motor oil because I had it.

 

CRC copper anti-sieze while I was running the gun in.

 

I suspect this is going to turn into one of those weather/politics/religion discussions 🤣

I've used many others including motor oil. This stuff feels the best when I rack the slide. If that matters at all.

I also use the Battleborn. Works great in all different weather conditions.

I use slide guide on some internal parts and Lucas and it's worked really well.

Although I recently got a sample of gun butter from an area match and have been using it in place of the Lucas the last 1500 rds or so and I have been pretty impressed with it so far. I'm sure it's all in my head but I swear the gun feels smoother with it than with the Lucas but who knows. The needle dropper on the bottle is also really handy FWIW.
