I suggest every person who owns a gun or who has a firearms training center like me, use Rem oil. It extends the life of your valuable firearms.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Jacky<br />MA Firearms Schoolhttp://www.bostonfirearms.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-82280892926241187872013-04-22T14:55:26.312-05:002013-04-22T14:55:26.312-05:00I use my own mix of Ed's Red-- kerosene, Dextr...I use my own mix of Ed's Red-- kerosene, Dextron II ATF (ATF replaced sperm oil), odorless mineral spirits and acetone...and lanolin if you want to spring for it. Without the lanolin it comes to about 10 bucks a gallon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-31605521168553094772013-04-20T20:53:25.277-05:002013-04-20T20:53:25.277-05:00In my 'yute' it was Hoppes solvent and oil...In my 'yute' it was Hoppes solvent and oil with a WD-40 wipe down (keeping it clear of action parts) it being the rusty Pacific NW.<br /><br />In my balding, expanding middle middle age my routine has become my homebrew Ed's Red for cleaning, a good wipe off of that make way for lubing with Slipstream oil and grease.

Try to avoid something that is specifically a penetration oil if it is likely to contact the ammunition itself. I also suggest avoiding the dry lubricants where possible as some of them can potentially attack aluminum. Most of all though be consistent. If you use whatever lubricant you feel like keep using the same stuff. If you change it out then totally clean your firearm and re lubricate. You never know what stuff will react with something.<br />Jesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17973419641321027031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-40224272600801135652013-04-20T14:52:31.520-05:002013-04-20T14:52:31.520-05:00I get that you get it, PawPaw.

Do you suppose the people who re-brand those industrial lubricants have tested their lubes by bathing factory ammo in them to see if lube incursion into the cartridge causes duds?<br /><br />Now, how about reloads? Seems to me that after the primer pocket is worked a few times, it might get looser, and anyway mil-std ammo has swaged-in primers, and reloading those hulls reuires reaming the primer pockets, so a looser fit for primers.<br /><br />This doesn't have to be an issue, just use less oil and more time. Clean the slide first, and then stand it vertical on it's face on a clean white patch. Within a half hour, all the excess oil which is going to run out will have. Upon your daily inspection of your carry and/or service gun, check for seeping lubes and wipe them away.Rivrdoghttp://rivrdog.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-23042915953522372662013-04-20T08:00:58.627-05:002013-04-20T08:00:58.627-05:00This seems relevant
