Mobil 1 or Break Free CLP
Rocnerd:
I use Break Free on all my guns, but I've been seeing more and more people using the Mobil 1. Is it better? Or is it just cheaper? Does the Mobil 1 allow for the ease of cleanup like the Break Free? I use Mobil 1 in my cars once past 50,000 miles or so, but never thought to use it on my firearms until I started seeing it in threads. Just how good is it and why? Thanks.
Wayne:
I use the Mobil1 because Eric had recommended it. See R9SCarry's FAQ Site on R9 Lubrication Recommendations.
Plus, one quart will last a lifetime. ;)
Rocnerd:
Well, I guess I will give it a try and see for myself. If the engineer of the pistol recommends it and his pistol has, what was the last concensus?-5000 rounds?, then it is good enough for me.
Wayne:
I agree, that's what did it for me. Prior to the R9, I also used Break Free thinking it was "the stuff". My H&K shipped with a small sample of Break Free, so it appeared to be recommended by the manufacturer for that particular weapon.
When I spoke with Eric, he referred to the R9 as a "hot rod". I had no idea what he meant until I had to buy motor oil for it. ;D

What do you guys use to dispense your Mobil One? My old oil can seems a bit crude for the task!
