Anyone Else use Mobil 1 for Lube??

[TheLastDaze]

I'm sure lube threads have been beaten to death on this site but I could not resist

New convert here that has totally moved over to Mobil 1, 20/50 V Twin oil for all my firearms. The stuff simply stays put and works like mad, has hi temp tolerance and many have used it as long as its been out 15yrs or so, with nothing but good to say about it.

Anyone else use M1 ??

I used Mobil 1 for my SWD M11/9 SMG exclusively. I use it on pistols and ARs about half of the time now. Otherwise I use CLP. I'm sure that the boutique stuff has it's place and does it's thing, but I can't argue with my results.

I use mobil 1 in all my AR's and have exclusively for a couple of years now.

I have before.. with no complaints. Lately I've been using some left over 75W-90 since I don't drive a manual anymore.

ok here's my thought: mass marketing is one of a company's largest expenses, its not in the product.

ie, ashless tc/w3 2 stroke motor oil adds lubricity into diesel fuel, thus extending injector life and adding much needed btu's to the fuel in the winter months.. do they market that? no... but it simply outperforms most of what you buy on the shelves for 10 X as much.. this is proven at a ratio of 200:1 tc/w3 outperformed MOST of the bottled stuff on the shelves that 'supposed' to help your truck.. tests actually showed that a good majority actually was more harmful for your truck had you just left straight pump fuel.. (but yet they're still legally able to put harmful products on the shelves)

my conclusion is, this stuff is better then rem oil, hoppe's oil, and the outters oil I was using.. I've only used it in Glocks thus far but I'm totally sold, bought a quart for $10 should last me for a couple years at the least..

I don't have the spec sheets on the oil but plan to do a small study in comparison....

interesting to say the least..

I use Mobile 1, 5w/30 synthetic

I've used AeroShell 20W50 and BP Turbo Oil 2380 on numerous occasions for experimental purposes. Frankly, with the exception of really low viscosity of the 2380, it all seems fine to me. I use Mobil 1 when I lube my guns at home, I carry CLP in my range bag.

I have buddies that use it for their classIII stuff-BrowningBAR, M60Squad gun, and others, works well.

Little video of us shootin' when I lived in Houston.

For me I use BreakFree "LP" Lubricant and Preserative for lube on all my stuff....bolt action, semi-auto, classIII. Not the BreakFree CLP for lube, but I know people who do.

Mobil 1......good stuff.

My ARs and 1911s run on Mobil 1 15w50.

Everything I own gets the Mobil1 treatment, my AR's and 1911's love it. And a bottle lasts forever.
