Gun cleaner and oil

Always heard moto oil was good...but not sure of best we weight...anybody got some suggestions?

Generic ATF fluid. Watchmakers use it. Your gun will never come close to the stress an auto transmission undergoes in one trip to the convenience store.

use wheelbearing grease for anything that needs to be greased. A lot of the high dollar gun grease is just repackaged bearing grease.

I’m pretty similar on lube. I use Ed’s Red for oil, which has a good amount of ATF in it, and straight synthetic wheel bearing grease for grease.

I’ve been digging the thin greases, so I mixed the Ed’s Red and wheel bearing grease until I got the consistency that I wanted. Very nice.
