[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2977345, member: 15054"] Here is something to really think about with lubes. Lube is to make moving parts move easier. You allow a contaminate to get in with that lube you have just created lapping compound. You will get wear. I use as little lube as possible. Something that is dry and does not allow dirt or carbon to adhere to it is even better. My motorcycle chains were not lasting long..An old man asked if I lubed them I said YES. He said do you clean all the dirt and grime off the chains first.. I said NO! He said you are making grinding compound every time you add lube to the dirty chain. Made sense. I was 18 at the time. ..I see how dirty a fired gun gets and all that crap mixed with the lube..You sure need to clean guns after a range session. I got a pistol of the same make and model of one I already owned. I just wanted 2.. my round count was 10x more than this newer one I was getting. The newer one had 10x more wear. Just things to think about.. lube is just so good for so long then you get grinding compound. [/QUOTE]
