Mobile one synthetic oil dropper

[_CY_]

Here's an easy to make gadget, but extremely handy.

Mobile one or other full synthetic is an excellent oil for 1911's. Make one of these for your gun cleaning kit.

-----------

take an old Visine eye drop or other dropper bottle. taking care to remove all old markings. a drop of oil in your eye would hurt

take a straw and drip oil into bottle

done... a handy leak proof oil drop dispenser for your gun kit

Not bad. Bravo! Dunno about motor oil in my 1911 though...

I like remoil for my oiling needs this would work though

great idea!
this should be a sticky. We need more of those,

Ask any of several 1911 experts about using a wet-lube (like Mobile-1 Synthetic 5w20) and they'll tell you that they are far and above what RemOil can do.

Different guns like different things, but 1911s like to run wet with plenty of lube.

Use Rem Oil on a glock - and just barely (if you have to)

Synthetic oil (I use Harley Syn3) works on AR15s as well

Thanks, never thought of that. In fact, I have not had Visine since college days LOL.

I've used Mobil 1 for years on my pistols and my AR's. After 1500 rds thru an AR in a single day it's still running while others are breaking theirs down to clean them.

We should have a D-I-Y / FAQ sticky section. That would be good.

On topic, not to mention a quart of oil would last a LONG time!!

+1000, have used Mobil One exclusively on my AR since new, and now use it on all of my pistols as well. Zero issues on any weapons since I switched over, after many thousands of rounds. Cleanup seems to be easier as well, though I can't prove it lol.

My range bag applicator looks remarkably similar, too
