I use gallons of WD-40 myself on all kinds of things, but I only use it to clean my guns and wipe them down. For lubricating I use Castrol Syntech.
You use engine oil for your guns? I use Castrol Syntec German formula in my GTO, but I used Spec 308 and Spec 357 on my Glock. 308 for the slide rails and a drop of 357 to rub down the outside of the barrel and the inside of the slide. A total of two small drops of the 357 and 308.
