By way of educating myself, I would be very grateful to get some information from shooters and gunsmiths about their preference in firearms lubricants.

What brand lubricant do you use?
I would also appreciate it if you would explain why you prefer that particular brand.

I thank you in advance for your replies, it will be very helpful to me.

In the police academy we were taught to use non-chlorinated brake cleaner or carburetor spray to degrease and Mobil 1 synthetic motor oil to lubricate our firearms. At 3-4 drops of oil as recommended by Glock a quart of Mobil 1 at $4.75 will last me a lifetime. Both products are readily available, inexpensive as opposed to dedicated "gun cleaners and work just as well. Been using these for years with no regrets.
