Ed's red less the acetone + lanolin fills most of my needs -

Hogue makes a very good grind to fit recoil pad.

So...... you oil your recoil pads? I don't get this.

Allow me cast a vote for Shooter's Choice FP-10 oil. Its not always easy to find but it really does work. Thin enough to move into tight spaces, dries well and really makes stubborn firearms work as they should. Been using it for over 10 years and have not had the first problem from it.

Ed's Red without acetone is my go-to for most except cleaning shotguns then I add acetone.

I used to use a dry bicycle lube on my mountain bike chains and shocks that had Teflon in it. It was good stuff. Can't find it anymore with Teflon. Teflon was probably removed due to environmental concerns.

A friend who's opinion I respect asked about gun oil. Recommened Quantum fishing reel lube, available in both oil and grease. They advertise 1/3 more distance casting over other lube's. Spendy, but was sure a fan. GW

Yeah, where did that come from? I got lost for a second there.
I use 3in1 oil, but not on recoil pads!

i have been using WD40 for decades as have many police armorers + gunsmiths - the gumming that many complain of is the result of users not flushing out the residual grease + grime completely when using it - lots of lab tests about it's properties to dispel the rumors -

Guess, as usual, I'm paddling against the current here, but I'm using the "new" Rem-Oil. Bought two large spray cans of it from Midway. I spray it onto gun cleaning patches and wipe it on where needed. So far it's doing what I want it to do--no rust observed. I does seem different than the original product--thinner.

Dupont chainsaver is a wax with teflon. I use it on all sorts of things, I really like the fact dirt doesn’t stick to it. It sets up in cold weather, though, so it doesn’t get used on guns.

Ballistol for all things hunting/fishing. Hoppes #9 for cleaning and sonic cleaner for small parts.

The thing about Kroil is if you get it in a can with a spout and you don't use it very quickly, you need to keep your can in an old cake pan.
When they say it is the oil that creeps, they ain't lying, it creeps right out of the can.

LMAO. That tickled me!
