I would tell y'all about LSA Weapons Oil but you can look it up. Has kept US military arms functioning since 'Nam. IMO there is nothing better at any price and this stuff is dirt cheap and US petroleum tech in action.

Used it decades ago as I got it by the case free, when they started issuing CLP I stopped as the CLP was better. LSA works and is cheap, but why use the stuff that just works instead of the best on a best gun. Vaseline can work as does 3 in 1 but Same reason to go to EP lubricants on hinge pins and locks as appropriate.
I did not know that the U.S. Military was in the habit of giving away "FREE" CASES of Government Issue Bore Cleaner and Lube for personal use.
Sounds something like perhaps a larcenous abuse and misuse of our tax dollars by a holier-than-thou little worm. I also wonder if it was limited to "free" cases of bore cleaner? Just my inquisitive opinion... as always.
