Lube Job
« on: June 20, 2008, 03:15:16 PM »
I know most of you shooters have more knowledge than I, so my question is, what do you use for lubrication on your weapons, I know there must be a lot available, but I would like to see what you consider the best.

I use Tetra oil and grease almost exclusiveley now. 
I switched from Breakfree 'cause they didn't have a grease. I had used BF for years and still will if its within arms reach.

MY FAVORITE 2 ARE FP-10 FOR THE LIQUID, AND BROWNELL'S ACTION MAGIC GREASE. GUN BUTTER IS VERY GOOD, AND GOOD OLD MILITARY LSA. SPRAY DRI SLIDE MOLYBEDNUM DISULFIDE, IS VERY DRY AND WORKS FOR DIRTY ENVIRONMENTS LIKE .22 RF.

How is that Gun Butter stuff with regards to attracting pocket lint? Does your carry gun seem to attract more or less with that stuff on it?

After a cleaning and "lube job", for the pistol I carry, I will be sure to get all excess lube, oil, etc,.. off with a dry patch or cleaning cloth. Lint doesn't seem an issue, I kinda have OCD when it comes to maint. Self confessed gun fondler, wife sometimes gets jealous.
I did have some lint in my P3AT after a couple of days, when I carried front pocket, but a quick patch in 5-10 minutes takes care of that.

If its going "in storage" for a bit, I don't leave it wet, but leave a slight coating on it for the humidity here in coastal NC.

I usually carry IWB in the 7:00 position (left-handed), and it isn't an issue.

A clean gun is a happy gun. 8)
