Like oil for our cars, I think lube for weapons has a huge amount of hype and is way over-thought. I confess, I have some Slip 2000 in my tool box, as well as some Machinegunner's Lube, so, at least at some point I did buy into the hype. I also have some Mobil 1 in some little squeeze bottles (eyedrop bottles) and mostly use that. Truthfully, I don't pay that much attention...I use whatever comes to hand first when I reach into my cleaning box.

I tend to stay away from grease on ARs because I always seem to be rolling around with them and grease holds the dirt and powder residue and forms a theoretically abrasive mixture that doesn't wash off when more gun oil is added in the field - you actually have to strip the stuff off with brake cleaner. I do use a little white lithium on the slide rails of pistols.

I have a couple quarts of Redline Synthetic from my 370 that I will now use on the AR. Just need to go pickup some of those droplet bottles.

I always forget how small .223 is. Here compared to 7mm Mauser.

I use slipstream and am very happy with it.

Me, I use regular CLP to keep my weapons clean, manufactures recommend it, and thats what I use, never had any issues.

They look good and I have a quite a few, but I dropped a full magazine on a piece of concrete at a 3 gun match and cracked one. Also it's a pain in the *** to load them with stripper clips and sometimes when loading with them the nose of the bullet will end up on one side of the center rib and the body on the other resulting in a type 3 stoppage.

Don't get me wrong, I like them and use them but it's still plastic. If you drop your mags free at the range when reloading it can get costly.

Those ranger plates would probably be a good investment, then.

It'd be nice just to have atleast 2 of them, I think I would rather stick with normal magazines, being that Im use to using them. But nonetheless, they still look badass.

It's done! Got my carry handle in from Palmetto State Armory today.
