A little help, please. Gun oil brand question. Login/Join 
Member

Awhile back there was discussion about various types of gun oils. One brand used two separate oils combined in one bottle and you had to shake the container to mix everything before you applied. I tried it out and liked it. But I cant find the bottle now and cant recall the brand name. Smaller company with a black bottle. Does anyone know what oil I am referring to? Thanks in advance!

I believe the company is out of business.

Yep.... It was Hurleys Gold. And it does appear they are out of business.
Thanks, guys.

Was (the operative word) this oil that great? Having to mix component parts together increases the possibility that they will separate back out.

It was problem free. No separation of the types of oil was noted. It was available in needle oilers that had very tiny balls that aided in mixing the oils. It worked well on knives, too.

If interested there are recipes on the web to at least try to replicate ‘Hurley’s Gold’. It shows it as a mix of synthetic oil and synthetic grease. I have mixed my own concoction from a web recipe, included light weight synthetic motor oil then some tranny fluid, may of been one other ingredient.

I think with the grease one has to mix it at times before use. Just an idea.

Probably not helpful, but I can recommend the Lucas brand as a replacement

Re a synthetic oil and a synthetic grease, as the "formula", we can all recognize that such formulations are attempts to create a desired viscosity.

All greases have a base oil present, along with a thickener and various performance additives.

So, adding more oil and stirring merely changes the proportion of the thickener and additives per unit volume.

I use a "Black Pearl EP" grease with a quantity of 600 neutral base oil mixed properly in the grease with a high speed industrial blending propeller as my pistol lubricant. It stays together, lasts forever, and of course, stains your shirt when you forget to wipe off the excess and go out to train.
