What is a good product to lube the slide with, I have been using Wilson's Ultima-Lube grease and just about out and need to order somemore. Is their something better that you like?

Thanks
Rick
 
I've used Tetra grease for slides for over 10 years, it's great stuff. I recently switched to Weapon Shield for everything else that needs lubed.
 
I've been using Slide Glide Lite for a couple of months. As long as it doesn't get colder than 30-40 degrees it should work ok. I've also been toying with the idea of thinning Mobile-1 grease with a little Mobile-1 5w30. It's just one of those projects I haven't gotten to yet.

I swithched to weapon shield (from militec) for everthing. Ive never used a separate slide lube.

Militech..THE Best

Use what has been proven by Federal Law Enforcement and solved all the problems in the desert war :

http://www.militec1.com/

Militech beat EVERYBODY else, hands down in actual testing and while originally was available only to SPECOPS in Iraq, is now used by everybody !

Great Stuff...solves problems !
 
I did a test a while ago that started with Militec-1 and then added WeaponShield (and eventually in another thread I examined Gunzilla).

The first set of test reports can be found here "What lube is this".
The second set of test reports can be found here...Product testing and review: Gunzilla

In the end I've switched to WeaponShield for almost everything though I do like using Gunzilla for cleaning. I also have some of the LithiShield lithium grease that really seems to do the job for 1911 rails (just a little dab will do, I think my tub will probably last forever).
 
Dry Slide all the way.
Wow, I havent heard that one in awhile. I still have the remnants of my last can around here somewhere. I've never seen it anywhere other than military sources, and that was back in the 70's, it still readily available?

This the stuff?

When I use a grease, I use GunSlick Gun Grease...stays put and is nice and smooth when racking the slide :) My dad gave an old tube of it to me out of a box of gun stuff he has. Works well :)

But I usually just use breakfree because it's easier. Though it's annoying when it starts to ooze out of the back of the slide after working it a few times...
