Use of lubricants

[Alan]

Low temperatures can significantly affect how lubricants perform. What differences have you experienced between grease and oil over long-term storage, and how have these changes impacted the operation of firearms?

i personally dont like grease as it tends to catch everything from powder, carbon and even dirt. Grease is super dirty and gets abrasive quickly.

i use Lucas products. Their Extreme series is really good stuff. I use their CLP for cleaning and gun oil for lube. Works great for me.

I like using the nanolubricants they are very slick and don't collect dirt like grease and oil.

I bought some up before I retired I do believe it is Nanolube. Price was about $25 for a tiny tube

Just got back to home-base and the Diamond nanotechnology lube was discontinued 2021 and is no longer available. Discontinued on the left it was the best on the right is what I went to when I couldn't get diamond lube and it's not as good.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Oh well, we tried. Nothing to be sorry about.
