The SR series of pistols are just fine. I own an SR9, SR40, SR45, and SR1911. They all shoot and shoot well. Use only factory mags in the SR9c you own and it will never fail you. My only contentions is that the SR9c has a manual safety and it has a magazine disconnect. The disconnect is...

Pointless snake oil type device. There is no empirical data to support that they do anything. The only positive thing I've ever heard is "they don't hurt". Whoopee!!!

Can anyone provide any empirical data that oil filter magnets do anything besides just stick to the filter? A lot of newer cars use a canister type setup so filter magnets are irrelevant.

No really long term storage, just that most of my tools are in the garage and exposed to hot and cold all year around.

Hello all. I am looking for any recommendations for a spray lubrication for tools in a tool chest. I know WD-40 will work, but as people have said, its long term lube and rust prevention leaves a lot to be desired. I have narrowed it down to 2 lubes. Lucas Extreme Duty CLP Fluidfilm Both...

All you NEED is motor oil to lube your guns, and that can be had cheap.

I agree, Wolf, Tula, poly coated steel cased 9mm appears to be good stuff. The only steel cased stuff I have ever had problems with was old Brown Bear lacquer coated 9mm ammo, but that stuff is no longer made IIRC.

I use the same stuff, but I use Rem-Oil too.

Exactly. My girlfriend has a 2019 Sante Fe and I put 5W-20 as the manufacturer recommends, I am quite sure that the engine will outlast the body of the vehicle.

I would gather that the vast majority of Honda 1.5LT engines aren't doing what you do. I am sure that most "attempt" to adhere to the manufacturer's recommendations but more than likely go beyond the recommended OCI. Are their engines wearing prematurely? All I am asking for is some empirical...

I'm not an expert on the Mini-30, but my Mini-14 has a free floating firing pin? I would imagine the Mini-30 has the same thing. Are you meaning the hammer spring? My Mini-14 has shot thousands of rounds of Wolf type ammo with no failures. I did get some FTEs with Federal AR223 which I...

True, but I still follow manufacturer's recommendation for oil viscosity and filter changes in 2022. Is there any empirical data to support that Honda 1.5LT engines in the USA using 0W-20 are wearing out quicker than the same engine overseas?

I know this is an older thread, and yes motor oil works great as a lubricant. IMO CLPs like Breakfree and Ballistol are a compromise. They are neither good at cleaning, but are better as a lube. I CLEAN my guns with Hoppe's #9 and LUBRICATE my guns with Rem-OIl(spray) and motor oil(barrel and...

Is the differentials on that vehicle really that sensitive to gear oil viscosity?

I've heard the arguments that steel cased ammo damages the backstops, manure.

With no manual safety.

I bought the Regent BR9SS. Great gun. I removed the magazine disconnect and it's even better. With the stunt that Springfield pulled in Illinois, I'd be hard pressed to buy a Springfield firearm again.

Rem Oil or some other spray lube and 5W-30 for rails, barrels, and other higher friction points. Any fancy boutique lubes are just completely un-necessary.

That's because the range wants to collect the brass and sell it.

Ballistol smells like black licorice vomit. It is essentially mineral oil, that's all.
