The Rem Oil will burn off AR15s really quick. Seems fine at first, then the BCG is heated and Rem Oil gone if you shoot high volume.
For the AR15 and AR10, it really pays off to use a thick, long-lasting lubricant that doesn't evaporate quickly.
I have some bottles of Slip2000 that do that really well, but I can't say if they do it better than Motor Oil.
The ability to keep applying it throughout a high volume course of fire and keep shooting (without having to completely disassemble and go through extraneous procedures) is important to me and all the organizations who shoot a lot.
I just ran into a guy recently who swears by Frog Lube and told him the experience one of my attendees had. He said, "It must not have been applied properly."
That immediately tells me it's not a user-friendly product for firearms if you can't squirt some on the BCG, into the cam pin helix, rub it on the carrier rails, lightly lube the bolt lugs and go to town.
If you have to use special tools to thermally prepare the BCG, that's a design flaw.
The marketing on the FL website is very hype-based. Lots of user testimonials with CAPS LOCKED and EXTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's not a good sign.
