What Lube and Cleaner Do you use ?

[BamaFan]

Curious what everyone uses to clean and lube their Pistols / Rifles
Are all lubes created equal ?
Are all cleaners basically the same ?
Also do you run your guns wet or slightly lubed ?

Surly you jest, this subject is the most discussed topic on any and all gun forums.

I have switched to using shooter's lube cleaner and lube. Cleans great, dissolves powder deposits and has no odor.

Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Nissan, Toyota?????? Which one? Pick one you like for effectiveness, smell, lubrication stay power, price and more and go with it!

I have been using a 50/50 homebrew mix of Mobil 1 10-30w and Marvel Mystery oil for years. It is cheap and makes cleaning AR's & AK's that have been using dirty steel cased ammo a snap! A fellow retired Police Officer who teaches carbine courses for government contractors that are going over to the "Sandbox" said that is all they use. (They are shooting 400-500 rds a day in these courses.)
You can spend a lot more on "snake oil of the month" gun lube, but not get anything much better! Good Luck!

When I saw the title, I was trying to remember - astro-glide, and just regular soap - then when I read the body of the post, I realized he was asking about guns. Eds Red, CLP, liquid wrench, etc. whatever the job calls for. Never WD 40 - none near my shop.

I wish I could enjoy this lively banter, with out forming mental images...

Give him a little time , he’ll figure out how to insult someone with out admitting he’s queer. I guess he was just bored and not thinking things through . But look on the bright side , he could of ask what’s the best caliber in a pistol ,9mm or 45acp. We haven’t hashed that one out lately.

 

[Tatorman]

45 acp of course

Hoppes and rem oil but I’ve used a bit of everything. I don’t obsess about it much just use what I have on hand. I haven‘t used mobile 1 in a while.....thanks for the reminder.
