Semi-auto handgun lube / grease

[riflewoman]

Any light oil. Pistols aren’t particularly in need of specialty oils. There’s an old sayin, if your gun isn’t dripping, it needs oil.

Mobile 1

That is used on tie rod ends. Mobile 1 has to be good.

Mil-Comm TW25B. Good stuff. Sig used to send a sample packet with their new handguns. I just used it to lube my P320, M1 Carbine, and AR15 in preparation for the coming apocalypse.

Mobile 28 aircraft grease

Slip 2000 EWL...

I used to use it and thought it was pretty good. I switch to Weapon Shield and like it much better. It seems to work better in high pressure contact areas. Here is a comparison video for whatever it is worth. I use the oil and the grease.

I have seen that video and it's hard to argue with.... If I can find some local I will give it a try for sure....I use the same oil on my AR platform rifles as I do my pistol....So I am always looking for something good..

I like Mobil 1 synthetic grease for the rails and barrel exterior, and Hobo for everything else.
Edit: After watching that demo video, I'm giving Weapon Shield oil and grease a try.

Breakfree CLP. It cuts carbon and stays put. It will keep your 1911 Colt running for a long time. Works on the polymer pistols too.

Redline red-moly assembly lube where I want it to stay really thin/run. Redline red-moly bearing grease for where I want it to stay thick/sit.

I like TW25. It was compounded to use on the miniguns, and it works great on all my guns. I first tried it on my S&W Model 41 slide, and it really freed it up, so I started using it on my S&W model 52 slide. With a charge of only 2.7 gr of Bullseye, if the gun is dirty or dry, it wont cycle properly. It works better with TW25.
I now use it on my rifles to lube the bolt and the locking lugs, and it works well on my 6PPC which is a very high pressure round.

I like Rig grease

That is an interesting video, and impressive to say the least. It definitely inspired me to try the Weaponshield product.

Shooters Choice FP-10

Saw a demo of friction resistant characteristics of FP-10 at Perry, when increasing weight was applied via a rotating steel wheel against a non moving steel object. The wear compared to other lubes was slight and almost non existent. I have used it on my LB 45 .acp, the slide to frame fit is still motionless after many years. Also have used CLP with good results.

Montana extreme just because that is what I use on my bolt rifle lugs

 

[hunter67]

Mobile 1 synthetic

 

[Infrequent Shooter]

I like Rig grease

I use Rig too. Also, proshot or pro gold grease.

 

[Brians356]

I also am a fan of Mobil 1

That's good 'cuz I buy 5-galquart jugs at WallyWorld, 15W-50 w/ high ZDDP content for an old flat-tappet engine (see avatar).

The Sig Armorer of Frisco, TX recommended Super Lube Synthetic "food grade H-1" Grease which contains PTFE. It is easy to find online. I think I have purchase on walmart.com. It's become my go to grease for all firearms applications since I can't find slick 50 grease anymore. Harbor Freight has it: https://www.harborfreight.com/search?q=super lube 3 ounce grease

I use Hornady cleaner and lube on all my autos. Found nothing better.
