Bacon fat...then CLP.

Just use something, most of the guns i see are so dry i do not know how they fire properly. metal on metal needs something. i would rather error on the too much oil vrs too dry. case in point a M1 garand needs everything lubed to work properly.

I tried a ton of different stuff after my wife wouldn't shut up about the smell of Hoppe's #9. So it was either find something new or clean guns outside. I landed on Rem oil and clean guns while watching TV with her. No complaining makes me happy. I use grease on the slippy parts though.

i use Break-Free CLP most of the time, and run grease on the rails.

Rem Oil, Fumes what fumes? You sound like you are from, oh never mind
Use bacon grease, oh wait a minute it smells to

My can of Rem oil is now my household lube. Works great on door hinges and locks.

The bottle of frogclean also works perfectly, sitting in the back of the cleaning cab, un-disturbed.

Right now I'm using M-Pro7 products. Non-toxic, does not smell horrible, and it works.

I just switched to that myself. I sprayed some of their cleaner in my "clean" 1911 barrel and within minutes there were globs of powder residue inside it. Makes my slide move with almost no friction now too.

Honestly, Rem Oil is at the bottom of my "barrel" as a solvent or lubricant. You may find an improvement with any choice.

+1. Anything is better than Rem Oil.

I use Ballistol.

I first used Rem Oil on a new Colt 6920. It went dry in less than 100 rounds. That was the last time I use Rem Oil.

This stuff is cool, if it just easier to order online with a credit card.
