Questions about gun oil for 1911
WHat kind of oil do ya'll use? What is your experience with it? I tried some new dry lube on my Smith&Wesson and had all kinds of bad luck at a state match. I had a bunch of failure to feeds. I think it is either the lube or a bad batch of ammo. I know it wasn't my grip, since I've never had this problem before. WHat do ya'll think?

FP-10 a little goes a long way.
Too much lube attracts all kinds of nasty things |

I've heard nothing but good things about Gun Butter. Never tried it myself. I've only ever used Rem oil.

Militec-1
It's the best, in my opinion. |

Probably any brand of synthetic motor oil would work though. I clean & oil my pstols in a normal kind of way, but before taking any of them out for a long, hard range session, I oil the heck out of the slide. A very good competition shooter told me once that if you don't have oil running down your arm, you don't have enough oil on your 1911.

Lubriplate
I use Lubriplate on all my semi-autos. Brownells sells it.
