[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 4153098, member: 27991"] I have used Rem Oil for 40 years. Mobil 1 on 1911 rails. Change my truck over from Mobil 1 to AMSoil, 4-5 years back. Dealer tried to sell me the AMSoil GUN CLEANER and LUBE. (2 seperate products) I asked what was different than the motor oil? His answer, "they are both are full synthetic, the gun oil protects to a much higher temperature. The gun oils differ between cleaner and protection. They studied, tested and tried; clean, lube and protect comes down to, which 2 do you want? I bought all 3, motor and both gun oils. Very satisfied with all 3. On the flip side, I haven't had problems with any oil. Keep them clean (most important) and lube with you have. Papa bought a Rem M-11 in 1923 (Browning A5 copy). Never used anything but Singer sewing machine oil on it. He shot 3-4 cases (80 boxes) of shells per year. I have a small, needle tip can of Singer oil. I used on single action revolvers. Many article and long discussions on oils, gun oils and snake oils. Some may be slightly better, most is just arguing points. [/QUOTE]
