As most of you had probably seen, a NES vendor put on an AR15 training class last weekend in CT. The training was intense with heavy rain and wind, which made it very interesting. While it was fun training in the rain it wreaked havoc with a lot of the AR15s there. When it was raining hard the water mixed with the CLP I used to lube my bolt and the CLP/water mixed with the gunpowder residue in the bolt area. For a while my AR15 ran fine, but as we spent more time doing drills the CLP/water mixture started to dry up. Soon after that happened my rifle turned into a jam-o-matic, which was very frustrating.
Now I'm trying to think of a lubricant that would maintain it's consistancy in adverse weather and it got me thinking of the grease I use on my M1 Garand. Has anyone used this on their AR15? Would there be any deficiancies I'm not thinking about by using grease instead of oil?
What do you use to lub your AR15 bolt?
