I clean with Weapon Shield.
I use Mobil 1 20W50 VTWIN oil.
I use Slip 2000 EWG grease.
Ed's Red is a good lubricant.

It generally causes more problems than it solves, and doesn't usually solve any actual problem, merely creates more. Again though, it works because the lubrication problem isn't that hard. Oil is just by and far, so much easier. That said, years of works for me is hard to overcome, so oh well.
Think for yourself. Question authority.

And this thread is it.
Grease in an AR is a hard no, it’s associated with stoppages even in hot environments. I tested some personally in a hot/humid env’t and had a lot of FTF. Went back to oil and no problems.
I’ve done a bunch of high round count days with Slip2000 EWL. I use the heavier stuff, “30” I think. I’ve been using it for years. It does a good job of staying put, lubricates well, and doesn’t smell bad like motor oil. I haven’t tried everything, there might be better stuff out there, but the EWL has exceeded my expecations.
I agree, I’d rather run thicker oil than grease and Slip2000 EWL30 is good stuff.
