Thanks.
I'm such a gun nerd that I recognized Andrew as soon as the video started. And I've never met him in person.

TW-25B has a distinct smell and feel. Very different than white lithium based products. No telling what Sig uses in-house during assembly. Probably whatever is available at the time.
Right, that's the hallmark of any manufacturing process: whatever's lying around. I'm dead sure they don't have a material number, storage and handling process, or logistical trail for whatever caulk, non-dairy creamer, or other ambiguous white paste they slap in the gun right before they toss them in laundry baskets for shipping.
Well, I wouldn't go that far. I simply meant that most manufacturers will use bulk machine oil and lithium grease in manufacture, not products that you or me might buy off the shelf. TW-25B is available in bulk however and I'm sure Sig would get a nice price.

Do you think they actually pay for the TW25B if that, is in fact, what they use? What better marketing than to provide a free sample of the lubricant? How many buy the stuff blindly, with their only statement being, manufacturer recommended?
I use it because it actually works. That stuff is SLIPPERY! Makes a crappy trigger feel halfway decent and a decent trigger feel great.
You should try Lubriplate 105. It feels just as slippery and has far better prices.
10oz is $10.
Wheel bearing grease would probably work just as well.
I use TW25B in cold weather and during warmer months, I like Slide Glide medium, but it is a lint - crud magnet.
