Luger Lubrication

Try RIG (Rust Inhibiting Grease) tradename, found in many sporting goods stores. Comes in small cans or tubes. I've used it for 45+ years and NEVER had a rust problem or found it to harden.

Hi:

I tried this on a vintage Mauser 98/09 around 1969 or so and not only found it to harden but also to attract moisture after doing so. This was my only and last experience with the stuff. Of course the modern formula might be quite different.

I have not found RIG to harden, but in my climate in So. Az. it does turn to liquid during the many hot months that we experience. I still use it occasionally, but have been most pleased with TW25b, and it is my go-to lube product.
