I was just contacted last night. I was told not to use 20-50 motor oil for lube and what to use instead wrote it down and lost it. looked at midway and didnt see it Im terrible with names and forgot gentlemans name who contacted me please contact me again and tell me what the name of the lube you recomended again thanks, jon
Jon be careful using oil, it can saturate the ammo not to mention the possibility of fire, not much but a chance,
Here is a link to the stuff that I have been using
www.mil-comm.com/
this stuff is the greatest and it is endorsed by a number of manufacturers, including ArmaLite and Dillon. You also can get it through MidWay USA.

you can also get a bigger size if needed.
Or if you want to keep it simple, use axle grease, but ditch the motor oil.

Oh ya, I just want to add that for our big guns, everything that I have read suggests gun grease works better.
I will second the mil-comm endorsment. I use it on my AR-10T as well as all of my other guns. The stuff works great and is easy to use. The people at mil-comm are great to work with also.
Glad to hear it and I also use it on all my weapons as well, although I have to use the MC2500 in one of my pistols. I can honestly say that it does work in all kinds of conditions. I had a bunch of sand and dust blow into the receiver (open) and thought i was going to have a nightmare on my hands, nope, she cracked off another 75 rounds with out a hitch or being cleaned.
Great stuff that Mil-comm.
