best gun cleaner/ lubricant? (read this)

[fastk9dad]

WaeponShield is my go-to. Works perfect for me, and really makes cleanup easy!
Have used it ever since receiving a sample bottle a couple years back.
Only other thing I use is TetraGrease on the rails.

This is my go-to as well. I also use the WS grease on my SIGs rails.

I found the recipe for "Ed's Red" and was curious about it, so glad this was included. It seems a reasonable "home brew" to use. I also have heard of folks using white lithium grease (as from AutoZone) for rail lubricant in pistols.

I'm not sold on the "cleaner/lubricant" aspect of any product. Cleaners are solvent of some sort and remove dirt residue and "lubricants." I use Gunzilla and appreciate the no-smell aspect, but I still apply a light touch of lubricant to critical points (rails, etc.) because I want to knwo the last thing applied was meant to lubricate, not remove libricants.

Also, I have no favorite products. I use everything from Mobil-1 to el cheapo Outers products. I can proclaim that a light wipe down of my firearms with Outers gun oil protected them for over 20 years of storage in a gun case in a closet. That's a pretty good endorsement in my mind. So find something that meets YOUR needs and stick with it--until you find something you like better.
