Worse Conditions for AR's

[Joseph5]

When I was in Desert Shield/Storm I had a quart bottle of Hoppes #9 I took with to clean and some kind of weapons grease, I can't remember the brand but in was in a silver tube, that I lubed the bolt with. It might have been Hoppes also. Through all of the sand storms and everything else I never had a weapons malfunction. When I was in Korea in the winter we kept our rifles cold to avoid the condensation problem when we were out in the field. I was never in a situation though were I was not able to perform any needed maintenance or cleaning. There were several occasions though when we were training and I put 400 to 600 rounds through my rifle in 2 to 4 hours time without a malfunction without cleaning or adding additional lube.
