One of my Drill Sergeants in basic told me he put CLP on his ammunition to make sure the rounds fed well. Just because it came out of a DIs mouth doesn't make it good advice.

I agree with you about believing everything out of a DI's mouth lol but in the article I posted I was having the carriage getting cocked on me like in the top left picture and that did stop that problem and it was the same thing in boot camp. But at the same time I do see your point about over lubing especially the dirt and getting excessive oil on the rounds is a big no-no.
