Moly coated trigger group?

[JiminTexas]

I remember seeing someplace, although I do not recall exactly where, that the writer was recommending using moly coating, as in the molybdenum powder coating for bullets, to slick up the trigger group and action of cowboy action guns of all thre types, shotgun, rifle and pistol. have any of you tried this and what do you think the results would be?

The downside of using Moly powder would be the mess. I would imagine that the powder would not stay put so well.

I do however use a tiny dollop of Moly Grease in the triggers of all my firearms. Keyword tiny so not to attract grit and junk. It will make em smooth.

Moly

Check with Grainger Supply, they have moly lube in about 30 different forms, all the way from 5 gallon buckets to spray cans that go on like paint. I used to warm parts till they were too hot to hold, and then sprayed them with moly spray. It coated them quite nicely, the parts that rub have a super lube on them and the parts that don't rub are rust proofed.

I gave a can to a member of special forces several years ago and he called me a few weeks later, wanting me to ship him a case for him and his friends. It seems sand just shakes off a weapon lubed with sprayed on moly. I also sprayed this down my barrels to coat them. After shooting wad cutter lead bullets, I can bang the end of the barrel on a white cloth and you can see the lead shavings fall out of the barrel. I freaked out a gunsmith showing him that trick at the pistol range.
