I've been using this lube since I got out of the Army, mainly for lubricating the rails and barrel. It's great and really stays put. Unfortunately, this is my last bottle, and the label with the NSN fell off somewhere, and I can't identify it anymore to find some more! It is white and thick.

It's less a grease and more a thick oil. I'd post a picture of it, but this is a family forum, and it would look like what's left after a...uh...money shot?

Is it kind of "gloopy and a little watery? If so then it is LSA. It was used before CLP came about.

Yes it's kinda watery but kinda greasy...but more it's like a heavy oil than a grease.

At least I know what to look for now.

Definitely looks like LSA/LSAT. Works well on machine guns.

Yep this is what I was going to say, from what I can tell in the picture (a bit fuzzy) it looks like LSA. We used to use this is the military.
