I think FLshooter sums it up pretty well. I grew up in the 60's using "gun oil" which was light machine oil. Also known as 3 in 1 oil. While not perfect, it worked. So when we say what we use, it is more informative to say what does not work for us. And that has been mentioned a few times. But for most of us, anything thicker than spit works. Not that I don't have my favorites too. :o
