But have you tried Marvel Mystery Oil??? When I was in boot camp, following qualification, we cleaned our M14's and then dipped them in a mix of marvel Mystery Oil and gasoline and let dry, for Final Inspection.

I've been using 3in1 Oil for oiling my firearms but have Marvel Mystery Oil on my shopping list.
