What does everyone run for gun grease? I am currently testing out some Lucas Oil Extreme Duty Gun Grease, but in the past I was an oil only guy. Any merit to "gun grease" vs a tub of wheel bearing grease?
This is for slides on pistols and any other high friction areas. Preferably would be NLGI 1 or lower so it wouldn’t be too thick in the cold tempsmacnaught
they go on sale on the manufacturer website occasionally

Grease depends on application.. no reason to bulk fill for most people
IMO tubes work great.
whoops thought he was talking about grease for a grease gun.. didnt see the forum subsection.This is for slides on pistols and any other high friction areas. Preferably would be NLGI 1 or lower so it wouldn’t be too thick in the cold temps
Pistol rails and AR boltsDepends on the application. What are you greasing?
TW25B is good for light applications. Mobil 1 Red grease for Garands.

I wouldn’t go any heavier than TW-25B. I have tried grease on some semi-autos, but while it felt smooth, it slowed the slide somewhat and could cause problems. Wilson Combat makes a very thick oil (they call it grease, but it is liquid) that is about perfect for AR bolts, though, as I have said before, most guns aren’t picky…Pistol rails and AR bolts
Edit: changed slides to rails. You know what I meant lol
I'd like to see a properly blended HPL Gun Oil with the viscosity of that goo.Mix M1 Synthetic Red Grease with M1 5W30 into a honey like mixture (thinner than grease / thicker than oil).
