Lubrication in 2014? Too many damn choices.

[sinlessorrow]

It's good for growing mold and fungus.

Do tell? I ahve some on the screws that hold my rubber butt pad on my magpul stock because they kept rusting up on. me, been there for over a year ow and no mold or fungus. Granted it lost its smell a long time ago but thats it.

If you fire the first round and its back to slick where is the real issue?? Sorry sent from phone. Typos

Thus far I've found this to be true. The lube does go to slick after the first round. With that said it is sometimes thick/gummy before firing that first round and especially so in very cold temps. What can I say - it stays put. I had a few test sessions last winter when the temperature was in the teens. Zero malfunctions from a BCM middy upper, but I took note of a few things. The ejection pattern for the first round on a cold bore was a few feet forward of the rest of the pile. So does the higher viscosity of the cold lube slow the bolt enough to change the ejection pattern? I'd say a little, but I've not seen it effect cycling enough to cause a first round malfunction as of yet.

I just bought a BCM SBR upper and it comes with a free BCM complete full auto BCG. I am going to carefully prep it and then give it the full Fireclean treatment.

Really? Is this even a lube? Didn't Otis come out with some nonsense like this a few years ago and then drop it for God knows what reason?

I did enjoy at least one of the 2 reviews though, this one:

This stuff is incredible!! I was shooting 2 inches at 100 yds. After following instructions and shooting the 30 rounds, the best I could do was 2 inches or less at 50 yds. The rifle is now at the gunsmith's getting re-barreled.

I shot a few hundred rounds saturday and the frog lube showed itself as soon as the gun was fired. There is no way I was even close to having ANY gum up. If anything it showed like a freshly cleaned and lubed pistol should. Gonna let it sit another week then clean it. See how easy it cleans.

My favorite aspect of gun forums. On ARF I used to post similarly MONUMENTALLY sarcastic and ridiculous stuff... without fail someone would take it seriously.

You should see the comments on 4/1 on accurateshooter.com articles if you want good entertainment. It's quite good, and surprising, year after year.
