I now use Slip2000 EWL. My LWRC M6A3 AR15 came with a bottle of the stuff and they recommened that I use it. After using it and researching it online, it's now my preferred lube. It's very slick and doesn't dry out like CLP.
Thought it was hype at first, but after using it in my AR's and Glocks and comparing it to CLP, there's just no comparison. I still use CLP on my 92fs, my Marlin 60 and older shotguns, but will only use Slip2000 EWL on my LWRC and my carry guns like my Glock.
The thing I love about it is that I can use less of it and only a thin coat is needed. The gun is "almost" dry, but the thin layer of Slip2000 is still very slick and won't dry out. Because of how little I use, there's little dirt and dust buildup in my guns from carrying IWB like I used to.
I also hear good things about using synthetic motor oil as lube for your AR bolt. Seems to produce great results among some competition shooters.
