Thanks, RogueJSK.

I wonder where I can find smaller dispensing bottles or syringes that won't leak.

Edit: Brownells, has some naemd " Monoject". I can get these from a friend.

Just about any modern wheel bearing grease is better than the Lubriplate 130A that GI's used in WWII.

That said, I still have about 8# of canned GI brown Plastilube grease, so I still use that.

It'll work, but I use XF-7 for my battle rifles. it never thickens and is really slick.

For customer guns, I use Lubriplate 130-A. It's cheap and a can from Brownell's will last an individual a lifetime. It does thicken over time when it's let to sit too long.

Lubriplate is "correct," any white lithium is fine, I have a tub of Moly EP grease from Auto Zone which is great for firearms.

For syringes, check your local craft/hobby store, I've been re-using ones I got of Wilson "Ultima lube."

I love those containers that Wilson Lube uses. Very handy.

That’s the exact tube I use.
