My Favorite gun oil and the best out there...

[Difranco]

I believe is FP-10. (www.fp10.com)

George over there is great people and designs/manufactures the stuff himself. It can also be purchased under the Shooter's Choice brandname.

If I could only have one CLP it would be Eezox. Eezox appears to protect against corrosion much better than FP-10. Per. FP-10's testing, FP-10 lubricates better than Eezox.

Hello all!! Been lurking for a while, 1st post. Great forum.

Both FP10 and Eezox are very good products. I use them both and am very happy.

FP10 is nice because there are no solvents or other potentially nasty ingredients. It's about the best (and safest) lube you can get.

I really like the dry properties of Eezox, so I use it on most of my handguns. It is a decent cleaner because of the Trichloroethelene solvent, but this stuff is not the most people friendly. From what George @ MPC said, the primary ingredients are Phthalates. From what I have researched, these are non-biodegradable diesters that do seem to give good lubrication.

FIY: George left MPC ~ a year ago. When I called to make an order just a couple of weeks ago, Sharron (pres.) confirmed this. They are still a great company, and FP10 is tops. I ordered some of their automotive products to try out as well. Anybody use MT-10 in their car??

All I use for gun oil is SUper Tech 75W-140 full synthetic gear oil. I've let other people use it and the immediately commented about how slick the stuff is.

Gun Butter.

Hey guys, neat topic. I have never had an opinion. but my dad has often doused his rifle with kerosene claiming it is solvent like for cutting the crud but also leaves a protective film. I don't care for this idea as I think it will collect crud as much as help. I had a issue with an automatic of mine (mechanical, non- lube related_) and brought it to a good gunsmith. He agreed with my take on the kerosene, and he suggested the Rem - lube with the teflon. His concern is staying slippery at cold (deer hunting in Minnesota) and the teflon works well for that.

Ballistol. One of, if not the first, CLP.

klr: Remoil just seemed to thin for me so I stopped using it.

According to their MSDS it contains %51 volatiles (mineral spirits) which is the amount of product that goes into the air. It's not a bad cleaner though with that kind of base. The oil appears to be ordinary distilled product but they are not saying. I don't get too excited about PTFE products, but I would look at Mil comm lubes if that is what you are after.

I really wish Gun Butter would put out some useful information/MSDS. Their website is packed with buzzword gobldy-gook. "Micro-mono layer"...what's that?

And degrease your gun before putting Gun butter on, but only put it on the places we tell you? They are welcoming corrosion with open arms.

4 stages is extreme use??

PTFE? Could be, but just a guess.

I don't really use an all-in-one product anymore. Use Blue Wonder GC and their Armadillo wax and Disotec lubricant. All their products are user friendly and biodegradeable.
