When lubricating the slide rails on an M1911A1 (or any semi-auto pistol, I suppose), do you prefer oil or a lightweight grease?

Oil

I use Blue Wonder Disotec XFR, Rem Oil if I can't find the BW.

Grease attracts too much debris.

I use Mobil 1. When I don't have that on hand, I have a bottle of M-Pro7 that works pretty well.

If You Dont Stand Behind Our Troops, Please Feel Free To Stand In Front Of Them

It's not illegal immigration, it's an invasion


If you want peace, prepare for war.

'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'
