Best BCG lube/oil

[Nessal]

I used to use CLP but have recently switched to Valvoline synthetic 5w40. It's thinner and sits well and doesn't run like CLP. I just make sure that it doesn't get anywhere near the bore.

I use CLP for everything.
I have a mini bottle of Larue Machinegun Oil in my MIAD for in the field.

I use Synthetic motor oil 5-30 I soak a small lint free cloth and put it in a small baggie and keep it in my A2 butt stock or in the grip of my carbine. Always handy for wiping the bolt down in the field applies a nice light coat and cleans off any debris or GP residue. At home I use CLP I get the big cans at Wal-Mart for the price of the small ones from the gun shop.

moly grease, (red wheel bearing grease) I use it on my glocks and AK

Gun butter. I get it from MSTN.
It stays where I put it and doesn't burn off; the bolt stays wet after hundreds of rounds. I hardly ever clean my BCG (twice since I've owned it, including cleaning it before the first time shooting it).
Recently got back from a 4 day rifle class at Front Sight. Temps. in the upper 90˚'s, lots of dust and 35-40 mph wind on days 3 and 4. Went through over 500 rounds and never reapplied lube after the start of the first day and had zero malfunctions, except those I deliberately set up to practice clearing them.

The best BCG Lube............. The one that you brought with you.

At one time or another I've used just about everything and anything to lube the BCG. CLP, Miltec, dipstick motor oil, ATF, cooking oil, etc..

It ALL worked at the time. In a pinch, a lot of things can work.

Given a choice, I run my own lube cocktail.

Gun Butter works great, lasts, stays put and dosen't attract dirt.

MSTN sells it or gunbutter.com

Take care
