  • Best grease for slide????

    I have always used hoppes gun oil but thought there is something better out there. Would and is grease better and if so what brand do you use???

    I shoot outdoors exclusively...all weather/all temps.
    I've found the best stuff (especially in sub-freezing temps) is synthetic.
    There are likely several brands, but I landed on Kellube (with the needle applicator) and stayed there.
    YMMV

      TW25. This is great stuff, used widely by tyhe Mi9litary and if you order it, order it in the syringe applicatoor, U can then just lay a small line of grease right downh inside the slide rails and never miss a beat. It doesn'trun and will stay where u put it. Good stuff.

      I am sure there are other great lubes out there, This is just ol jocko's favorite. U can take what I say sometimes with a grain or salt or a grain of plutonioum floating in the air around Japan to.
      . My PM9 has over 34,000+ rounds through it, and runs much better than an illegal trying to get across our border

        Well, Good morning Jocko! I figured either you or Bawanna would be on this right off the bat. He must still be snoozing. Yeah the hoppes oil tends to run no matter how light of an application you put on. I will look today at work and see what we carry. Nothing to do with this thread but want to share this with somebody. Today is my Birthday and my 23 year old son just told me he got hired full time where he has been working for the past 2 months as an intern. He is now a full fledged accountant! Im so proud of him. Best birthday gift I ever got. He is also moving out April first but will still be just minutes away. My son has now become an official adult.

                      Must be nice. I can't get any if I go upstairs (at work or home).

                              A big plus 1 on that. A supplier of wonderful things just upstairs and a freaking shooting range to boot. No doubt a discount on Tracker boats too.

                              You know I never did like you tconroy, never did, probably never will. I suppose someday if my jealousy ever subsides we could live in harmony 2 or 3000 miles apart but right now I'm a little bummed.

                              I'm not sure you'll be getting a Valentines card from me this year.
