Hi .. this is my first time assembling an upper ...I have assembled lowers before.
So my questions are ; 1. no lube on the outside of the barrel extension? ––SS Noveske 2. Fail Zero upper will get the threads lubed ––- now the TM says the grease cant have lithium right? I am tempted to just use Mobil 1 or CLP I also have Lubriplate...which is best out of these three or absolutely none of the above. I am using a Larue Barrel nut thanks |

The TM gives a milspec for the grease.
Aeroshell 33MS states it meets the milspec. There may be others. This is an often debated subject even a cursory search should reveal a number of posts. Personally I have the milspec grease, I use the milspec grease, and I recommend using the milspec grease. It seems likely to me that there are substitutes that will work for SA civilian weapons. I could make a good guess which might be ok, but in the end it would just be a guess and why guess when the grease that meets the milspec is available. |
