Question

Slightly off thread --

My experience while working at NASA

PRODUCING EXPERIMENTAL AIRCRAFT AND

SPACECRAFT PARTS included much machining

of new and exotic materials.

We experienced severs and consistant

seizing of stainless steel parts when

lubricated with silicone oils and greases

I for one never use silicone on any moving

stainless steel parts.

I would suggest caution with the new stainless

firearms on the market !!!!
