Default Re: What do you lube your gun with

I use Breakfree to do the overall cleaning and TW25B for lube in the rails. It come's in a syringe and works wonderful. Clean out rails with a patch and q-tip easy cleanup.

I once took a clean AR, lubed with Breakfree CLP (not sure how long it sat), fired about 200 rounds pretty fast (got pretty hot) and then put it in the closet for a few days without cleaning. A few days later the bolt wouldn't close fast enough to chamber a round. Later read on the net that CLP can gum up actions sometimes if left on too long (or used in my case). Once I read this I repeated with Hoppes gun oil and did not experience the same problem. Could have been something else going on I wasn't aware of, but I don't use CLP anymore regardless. Armalite also does not a favorable opinion of CLP according to one of their tech docs.

"CLP" is a generic term. Are you referring to Break-Free?

I am referring to Break Free CLP - I actually edited my post for that clarification, it must have been just as you were posting.
