Lube and Grease thread

[Riverpigusmc]

I do the pretty much the same except I run a cutup Remoil patch down the bore (humid here in Dixie) and use Ultimalube Universal on the rails.

Nice thread, .

Good step by step illustrations.

As far as the bore, Schuemann Barrels says the same thing, just firing rounds will eventually get the bore shinny?

Thanks Dave, another great info thread.

Good thread Dave. I see you have a 10-8 armorer's block too. I use mine a lot.

Though I haven't tried it, I hear Mobil 1 synthetic 5W-30 motor oil makes a great lubricant for the 1911. Thoughts?

I bought a qt, but haven't tried it.

Guys, it wasn't my intent to turn this into a 'My lube is better than yours' or even a 'This is the only way to do it' thread. It's basically a thread to show new guys and such, where to lube and how I do it.

Doesn't matter if you use what I use, what somebody else uses or if you have success rubbing the rails with Vietnamese Potbelly-Pig fat. Nor is the way I showed the only way.

Please, I had no intent to turn this into a debate.
