I was firing a MAC10 once and it got so hot that the Rem Oil lube cooked into a sooty paste and hung up the gun.
I switched to Mobil One and never had the problem again. |

Use FP10.
Main issue I have is the bolt is bone dry after 100 rounds, but I think that's more due to the suppressor than the type of oil I use as it seems to stay lubes for 200+ rounds when I shoot unsuppressed. |

Been using Breakfree CLP for years, has never let me down on lubrication and rust prevention. No intention to change.
Also use Lucas Gun oil. It's a great oil that doesnt smell at all and seems to stick around a bit better than CLP. That said I have used Mobil 1 and would have no issues using it either. I would not however use any of the plant based enviro friendly lubes as they have a tendency to oxidize and leave a gummy mess under certain circumstances. |

I always hear guys saying they use engine oil....never tried it, but I'm open to it.
Seems like it'd be messy....lower viscosity than gun oils no? How are you guys applying it? How's it smell when it's burning off? |

I use gun oil, what ever is handy at the time, on most of my guns. The only time I use any grease is on high pressure surfaces like sear faces on open bolt guns. The grease I use for that is the old little butt stock pots for the M1/M14 rifles.

The brings up a good point. I wonder if that affects what you use? For example whether you use grease or a oil lubricant. I know when I'm use suppressors with CLP, it turns into a pretty nasty mess sometimes. |
