Should we use oils made of "rapeseed"? It sounds like it is another part of the war on women...
I still clean like the army taught me to; after each shooting session, with a lifetime 5 gal jug of CLP, tooth brush, cut up brown t shirt, boresnake, And most importantly cans and cans of Ripits
Buying group?
Other than Frog Lube, I haven't seen a gun oil/grease that I wouldn't recommend. If you aren't working above the Arctic Circle, or in a windblown desert, they all work.
I mix up Ed's Red Lube and use that on all my firearms. If I need grease, I use Mobil 1 synthetic that comes in a grease gun tube.
Ken Hackathorn uses straight Mobil 1 automotive oil on all his firearms.
Ballistol has been around for a loooooong time. Mineral oil based and non-toxic, but I don't advise drinking it cuz it tastes like hell.

The slightly dated 'Glocks in Competition' claims WD 40 will harm the plated small parts on Glocks. May be hokum.
WD40's formula is a trade secret, but it looks like 50% of it is aliphatic hydrocarbons. Aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as methane, ethane, propane, butane, etc. can chemically etch plating.
Sounds plausible that WD40 could damage plated parts, but I would think that it would take prolonged exposure to do so.
Been using WD-40 for 30 years. Have hunted in sleet, and 3 feet of snow and have never had a FTF or FTE.. They have always gone boom!
