[QUOTE="aestus, post: 1875061, member: 2989"] If you're shooting high volume and need to lube constantly and all the time. Use synthetic mobile 1 oil. It's cheap and you can wet your bolt down to your hearts content. However, motor oil stinks and I can't stand the smell. If you you've got money and want to use what most regard as one of THE best lubricants specifically for AR's, use Slip2000 EWL. Google BCM Filthy 14. Great stuff and not terribly expensive. If you are just a range guy or don't ever see yourself running 1000 rounds in a day multiple times a month or year, break free CLP is good enough and easily found everywhere. If you're a bit adventurous and want to try the latest craze in wonder lubes, try frog lube. So far, it's been getting rave reviews and may soon replace Slip2000 EWL as the preferred lube if it keeps going the way it is. Frog lube comes in liquid form or grease form. The thing about frog lube is that it soaks into the pores of the metal and heat is what releases it. They recommend heating your parts slightly before applying. I personally use Slip 2000 EWL. Frog lube is a bit too expensive for me. If I was the type who lubed and basically didn't clean until after about 1000 rounds, then Frog Lube would make sense. However, I'm a bit OCD when it comes to cleaning so it would be a waste of money for me since I would be cleaning off and reapplying it everytime after a trip to the range. Because of that, I'll stick with Slip 2000 EWL ;) [/QUOTE]
