What gun lube do you use?
I've read that some people use synthetic motor oil for lube on hteir guns. I've used a number of different products over the years. Hoppes, Break Free etc. What do you use for both pistols and revolvers?

I read a post on another forum about the mobil 1. They were raving about the results.

That's what I've read too. It sounds like it really works well and doesn't smell like some of the other lubes which is a plus. Don't want to smell like hoppes while CCW

I use, depending on the gun, CLP or Wilson's Grease.
For cleaning I use, again, depending upon the gun, CLP, Green Stuff or Hoppes. Biker

Militec-1. Best lube/conditioner out there IMO. Free sample was what got me hooked and have never looked back.
