I have a question for our hardcore P90 shooters here. What do you like to use to lube your slide, if anything? Being that I am probably worrying too much about gunk and powder residue, I am currently using Remington Dri-Lube on the slide. But is there a better option? Would a lube like Tetra Gun or Ballistol be a better choice? Is slide grease recommended or not?

Or...does the P90 prefer to be operated "dry," that is, without any slide lubrication?
 
This is what I use for the slide rails

Great stuff and it smells good too :)
 
I use Eezox on mine for Concealed Carry. If I'm going to do Range practice, or shoot it a lot, I put a little lithium grease on the rail.
 
I had been using Remington Gun oil, but after a lot of reading, I also now use Eezox. A dry lubricant designed not to accumulate dust/dirt etc. Only used it once but really like it.

My P94 is not picky at all. Currently I use Rem Oil, but I've used numerous different gun oils over the years.

I don't really think there is a "best" one to use. Just use whatever you want properly.
 
This is what I use for slide rails, barrels and recoil springs/guides.

Thanks for the replies, all! Guess I was worried about nothing...again...

Now I did find some wheel bearing grease in my basement. Would a little bit of that applied properly be sufficient? Or is it too high a viscosity for my application?

I've used that too. Just put it on real thin. You just want a real thin layer on there.
