Poll - Most used lubricants in 3 categories

TW25B for when I need grease. Pistols that get carried a lot, but not shot much.

FP-10 or WeaponShield for when I need a CLP. General lube and pretty much all I use on my ARs.

Kellube 12 for when I need something in between. Most of the pistols I shoot freequently and some carry guns.

I started using Amsiol full synthetic on my AR about a month ago. It has a high temperature resistance to breaking down and its protection qualities for metal to metal wear are outstanding. I have 400 rounds through my AR without cleaning and it isn't gummed up or slowed down at all. The bolt & carrier snap back like I just cleaned it. I have also known people to use high temp axle grease on their AR's. Say it works great although I have not tried it.

For what it's worth, a properly built AR should be able to go thousands of rounds between cleanings as long as you keep the moving parts wet with some kind of lubricant.

an AR should run 400 rounds with just about anything short of gravel as a lubricant.

High Temp Wheel Bearing Grease on all of them.
