I was reading on Rimfire Central that a dry lube with teflon should be used on a P22. Some of the guys recommend Remington rem oil. I have never seen the stuff but to me it sounds like oil and not dry at all, or is it actually a dry lube?
 
The Remington Product to look for is called "REM Dri-Lube" ..., an aerosol,
teflon based spray that goes on liquid and then evaporates to a dry lube, without the residue of powdered graphite. Said to work down to -40F. Used it for about the past 10years or so, without complaint. Good product !!
 
I read an article by Chuck Taylor (can't remember where it was however), where he mentioned doing a test with Remington Dri-Lube in arctic conditions. He said it was an excellent lubricant and according to the article, he uses it exclusively on his Glocks.
 
I believe Hoppes also makes a Teflon dry lube that is sprayed on wet and dries to leave a film of Teflon on the metal. It should be mentioned that these lubes do nothing to protect the metal from corrosion. In my opinion these "dry" lubes are ok for moderate/cold dry climates but they are useless in more humid conditions.

Here is an excellent article on corrosion protection for firearms. I used Eezox this year and have still not lubed or cleaned the metal on my firearm after the hunting season, it seems to work and protect the metal as the test shows, I am very happy with it's performance and had no problem using the firearm in
-20 temperatures and going from hot to cold conditions on a daily basis. Enjoy the article.

Is the spray just Teflon? Because if it is, I know that Gregg Distributors sells a Teflon spray that sounds like it's the same thing, but it's only about $5 a can. I use it for woodworking all the time.
