I use LP on my BCG rails and CLP on the rest of the lube points. I have used Lucas Red & Tacky grease in the BCG in hot weather. I use the Red & Tacky on my Garand, M-14, and my bolt actions bolt locking lugs and cocking cams.

"- I don't think we've got around to running those yet.
- As for HK's, we actually put four factory HK-416's on the line. The HK clone held up WAY longer than anyone expected. I can't remember which piece finally gave but I did get a hold of the original manufacture of those uppers and he does have replacement parts. I just have to remember to order them from him.
- We are still using Lucas oil and Slip 2000 products on all the weapons, to include the M134's now.
I’ve seen CLP cause as many cleaning, lubricating, and rust prevention issues as it has ever cured. I used to jack all the LSA I could get from the Support PLT and Delta gun trucks that I could get, then I told all my grunts we were out of CLP. LOL Good lubricants, good cleaners, and good preservatives come in all sorts of forms....just seems they’re all rarely in the same 60 year old formula... I’ve no idea what all is out there on the cutting edge these days. Going light with good stuff has always seemed to work well. Yeah, good grease, too.
