I used to use dow33 on everything. Now I tend to like super lube grease a little bit better. I was never much for oil since it doesn't stay in place I did have a bottle of Triflo from back when people thought oiling Delrin bolts was a good idea. Now though if I need oil for something small and odd I tend to just go for the Starrett instrument oil I have for refurbishing old micrometers and such. Its much smoother you would not notice it normally but I was using it in a bushing for a small air engine years ago long story short triflo would bind the bushing stopping the engine while the Starrett oil would not.

Gold Cup for oil. Bottle sucks in the worst way and is guaranteed to get as much oil on you and your work bench as on the gun. But the oil itself is fine.
An old bottle of Dow33 Smart Parts grease for the 3 way and ramComment
