m14 gun grease

[Aniest]

If you don't grease your M14 or M1A or M1 Garand rifles, yer #### WILL fall off!

You all know I could not resist!

I use high temp lithium grease from that Queen's child Auto place down the road: works well enough.

I got a little squueze tube of Permatex Ultra Slick White Lithium Grease from crappy tire for 6 bucks. Has a fairly fine applicator tip, so you don't need to get a syringe.

Looks just like this, but white lithium, not graphite

KY all the way... comes in handly for those long days/nights in the field.

Just be careful, I think all will agree, too much grease is a sand magnet. Sand not good for action. When we were in Pet with the C1, we used graphite. It was drilled into us, NO OIL! Not sure if that's still the case. I just use the regular gun oil where it counts.

Anyone tried MollySlip?

I have used vasoline on all my guns for over 30 years. It is cleaner to use, and when it rains, it keeps the gun going.

That's interesting, never thought of that.

Deliverance comes to mind however

I swear by good old high heat ball joint grease.....served me well for 1000's of rounds

Lubriplate No. 630-2. Seems to work just fine.

I am using CV Joint grease, applied with one of those Lee Valley curved-tube syringes. Just cut a little bit off the end 'cuz the hole is too small. The grease comes in CV Joint boot replacement kits.

I slathered some Lubriplate 105 in there, man did that ever smoothin things up, I was worried it would be a little on the thin side, but seems to work GREAT!

Would something like Remington Drilube (basically a teflon wax iirc) work alright instead?
