The only place the bolt carrier contacts the upper is the rails on the carrier.
With that being said the dry film is for break in only. It does not last long and not really needed with proper wet lube. |

I like to spray dry lube on the inside of my buffer tube,, not sure why other than the fact I know the higher end buffer tubes come with a pre dry-lube so it must be good for something, keeps the buffer spring happy.
Otis makes a dry lube you can find on Midway.com Otis Dry Lubricant 2 oz Aerosol |

I can't imagine using dry film lube on any firearm. I do have a spray can of a Birchwood-Casey product called Moly Lube that is perfect for door latches and key locks, esp those exposed to the weather. Unlike any oils or greases I've tried, only this dry moly stuff keeps car door locks from freezing solid in cold weather. - CW

Dry lube is useful on rimfire semiauto bolts when you want to minimize grunge buildup and field stripping is a challenge, e.g. most Ruger Mk model pistols.

I always coat all my parts in WS2. It's the most lubricious material on the planet. More effective than oil with a lower coefficient of friction. It sticks to all ferrous metals but doesn't stick to any type of policies metal like stainless unless bead blasted.
