Mobile 1.

Evidently a lot of lubes work well, so I wonder if we are not too focused on a particular lube that the manufacturer claims is a miracle lube.

The first lube I ever used was 3 in 1 machine oil. Then in the military I used the mil lubes. Subsequently, I have used the miracle lubes, but never found them better than anything else. I finally settled on Mobile 1, although I have a bottle of FP10, and will also use it till it is gone.

I stopped using grease on the rails several years ago, and find that with oil I get less gunk to clean.
If you get a malfunction it will not be because you used or did not use a certain lubricant. Clean the gun well, and use what you have.
