What are you all using to lube up your HKs?

I have been getting more and more into the US Rifles (M1 and M14 specifically) and was surprised to see how many people are using automotive greases on their weapons. In fact, I am a huge fan of all things Mobil 1 and now will be using their synthetic grease to lube up all my "battle rifles" from now on.

Any thoughts on this??

I do the same and have done so for several years now.

I have also found Mobil 1 seems to remain on the weapon longer and doesn't dry or burn off as fast as the thinner firearm lubricants. Anything that has to be run and kept "wet" gets Mobil 1 treatment.

I don't currently own any HK long guns since I'm still looking for a 416, but all my pistols and my LMTs get milcom. Side by side tests done on my own with that and slip ewl end up with slip drying off but not the milcom. Haven't tried mobile 1.

I have been using EWL on all my guns lately. I got the big bottle.

Mlitec-1, Ive used it dusty/sandy conditions and it did what it said on the tin.

so far I use Break-Free CLP, Eezox and I want to try out Froglube pretty soon...

I use Bacon grease, works great. Only problem is after it heats up I get hungry!

 

[Shattered Mind]

Well then... make the big switch to raccoon saliva. You won't get hungry ...unless you're from the South... :biggrin:

MMMMM Bacon!

I use a lot of the FP-10 synthetic lube. Stays where you put it. I used the Mpro-7 and CLP a lot at the shop, but I went back to the Fp-10. Next is to try the Grease.
Anybody try the Enos Slide glide on their BCG's yet?

Anything wrong with plain old gun oil?

 

[ts160]

Wilson Combat gun grease. Formulated for semi autos. Works great

 

[GodSpeed]

In terms of a new pistol - what proper greasing/lubrication methods should one use fresh out of the box, if any? I understand wiping off the factory residue, etc...

I am going to try that.

I use Mobil 1 synthetic motor oil to lube my AKs and SL8-1/G36 conversion.
