We use grease on chempumps hundreds of times more expensive than your PSA rifle. These things run hotter and all day. Good enough for them, good enough for a gun.
I use both grease and oil
grease for slide rails, buffer tube, and exterior needs while internals like springs levers, bcg, rotating bits, mag release mechanism etc
or grease everything it really doesn't matter
Smokes too much.
I made the mistake of using this on a carbon steel skillet once and it nearly smoked me out of the kitchen the next time I heated it up.
It'd be miserable in a rifle.
Food grade lube.
Non toxic, thiccc enough to stay on and thin enough to spread into the nooks and crannies.
Honestly I might start selling some to people.
Not quite sure how to describe it. Not "tan mystery Chinese grease" tier though. I used it in my AR and it's fine and doesn't have a smell so I'm happy with it. I don't know why I said "sticky as frick", I meant it more "it actually stays in place" and "holy frick I can't get it off my hands". Good under handgun safeties where water can get and handgun rails, stuff like that. Also very good for long term storage IMO. Would probably make a great substitute for Cosmoline and wouldn't turn rock hard unlike Cosmoline. It's vaseline-tier, maybe a little thicker, but actually works really well. I sometimes rub it on and wipe it off to put a thin layer on something I don't think I'm going to shoot for a while. Also you get a whole fricking tube of it for like $10-15. I have a tube that's 5+ years old and use it on everything, even places that require a frickload of grease like bearings, and haven't made a dent in the tube.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem Project Farm has a video on this grease; CRC tends to do pretty well for preventing wear and is US made. IDK why it looks funny in this pic but it's the only one I can find of it open.
For some reason when I search for CRC grease all I can find is pics from tokopedia and bukalapak and shit like that, all indian or some shit. If I search "crc lithium grease sta lube" I get indian sites. If I search the same but with "general" (as in "general purpose") I get all generic Amazon listing stock pics which are shit. Weirdly it seems a lot of these greases have tons of listings on Indian or Vietnamese or Thailand listings. Guess they sell a frickload of it for use on their Motorcycles or something.

slightly more readable.
god bless whoever did this shit. I chose corrosion-X and it saved my CNC milling machine from rusting in 3 winters in humid-ass michigan. frick that place.

I don't spray my guns down with salt water, so ballistol is fine
Any $5 tub of high-temp wheel bearing grease you can find anywhere. The tub will last you decades and perform better than any boutique gun-specific brand you can buy.

Engine oil is both cheap and overkill for guns. It's perfect for any high tolerance part in a firearm: loose tolerance parts get grease. People really overthink and overpay bigly for firearm lubricants. >imagine paying $10 for a 3 oz bottle of lubricant made with R&D budget of two Fuds and their garage that hasn't been updated since the 1960's.
This. I use 5w30 cuz it's cheap and if you do your own automotive maintenenace you'll have plenty lying around. I also use a can of Wally Word red grease for high temps and put that on anything that slides. Glock, AK, AR, they all get the cheap shit and it works better than any CLP shit.
Honestly, range guns and plinkers - this. The lubricating properties are definitely at least adequate as far as I can tell.
Stuff that I go innawoods with? The cooey (single shot break action) I have just gots some marine grease in the internal stuff like... years ago, and the barrel just gets CLP every time it rains. The mosin mostly just gets CLP and some boiled linseed oil on the wood parts.

This. OP, ask your mom for some cum. She should have buttloads of it.
ATF
3 in 1 oil, it's penetrating and volatile though so you have to apply it perhaps yearly or every time you shoot.
the volatility seems troublesome, how about PAO oil?
claims good to 400F
You want something a bit volatile or else it becomes shellac in the chamber and barrel, places exposed to the extreme heat and pressure.
>MicroMicroLubrol
>3 in 1 oil
Agreed.
t - literal boomer
I like the new ones in the plastic bottles as the older metal can ones tend to rust.
Works great for some jobs. Hate the smell.
>tin can
yuo are like little baby
white lithium grease and mineral oil anything else youre just getting a marketing markup
you don't believe grease traps abrasives?
No more than any other oil would, just use a very thin layer and spread it with a rag.
We use grease on chempumps hundreds of times more expensive than your PSA rifle. These things run hotter and all day. Good enough for them, good enough for a gun.
presumably a pump isn't exhausting combustion productions right into the grease
It's in a filthy chem plant. The grease is full of gunk and it doesn't wear out rapidly moving parts.

Super Lube Grease

You realize Ballistol is mostly mineral oil.
is this safe near the chamber?
i've used it exclusively for over a decade and never had an issue
I have no idea what that is or what the material properties are.
Pennzoil red n tacky
I've been using silicon oil.
Am I being a moron?
I haven't had any issues.
Food grade lube.

It stops shit from rusting and is sticky as frick. Also made in PA IIRC. Or at least some of their other stuff is.
>sticky
hard pass

Not WD40, it's not even a lubricant, or a protectant.
Ooh, sauce?
that is an ancient photo
and here I got excited thinking PF or somebody else was doing a large scale test and not just a redditor doing some work back in 2013 looks like.
Thanks

When it gives you colon cancer before the trials have even completed.

Black person your finger prints are salt water.

I got grease from Lube, Coomgrease
PX Soviet.

b-but anon... I don't got the filter or know how to change the oil pan/empty the reservoir on my gunz?

I use bulk mineral oil for cleaning and car store greases/lubes for non gun lubes.
I don't like J-Lube. Its crazy cheap per mixed ml, but it gets too gummy over long, uh... shooting sessions... compared to Onatsuyu
anyone tried spraying teflon?
Yes its 100% safe and protects the gun
Old Rem Oil cans. Like 5+ years old. Makes guns feel like lubed glass. Also probably really bad for you.

surprised nobody has said mobil 1 and high temp synthetic grease mixed together yet.
Same moron as above,
I heard that works really well actually but stinks like shit, hopefully a /kommando with a garage can elaborate on that rumor.
I and my friends use this shit on our guns, it's great. Would highly recommend it.
These similar containers with peelable labels make me feel mischievous
Coomoil
Not for fisting
Pretty much anything works.
isn't tri-flow a machine maintenance lubricant?
Chainsaw bar oil super thick and has additives to make it stick to the metal
