I don't use any grease on any of my firearms, just CLP. the key is just lube where there is metal to metal friction. you don't need 2 products

Grease has no place on an AR15, with the exception of the trigger sear engagement surfaces.

Grease works just fine on bolt carrier rails. Local LGS owner is an Olympic shooter (won silver I think) and he first suggested it to me. Not my first choice but it works.
Kyle Lamb endorses the Rand CLP, I'd try it. |

I'll agree with poster who said "grease has no place on an AR". I tried using synthetic grease on my BCG and it was a disaster. Never again. Mobile 1 motor oil for me from here on out (never had a single issue with it).
I grease my AK's and oil my AR's. Just the way it is. Grease does not play well with carbon (makes a thick/sticky mess). Anyone who recommends grease either does not shoot much (safe queen) or only shoots VERY limited rounds per session. Grease is poor advice (and I'd hardly take the opinion of a Olympic shooter over a soldier who relies on his weapon to stay alive). |

We can agree to disagree. I've used lithium grease on my carrier rails many times and it works just fine for me even on multiple hundred round range days with high temp and cheap dirty ammo.
I wouldn't use it on the bolt just the carrier rails. Bolt and cam pin get oil. Also, do you have any idea the volume Olympic shooters go through to get to that level of skill? Pretty silly to call that VERY limited use. This guy probably shoots more annually than you will in your life bud. |

You could run it with mayonnaise and it would run, so long as you clean it often. Some people have had decent luck with lithium grease... I'm not one of them. I prefer oil for mine. YMMV. |
