Mil Comm oil and grease.

[tedjack]

I have been using Rem Oil forever. Has anyone used Mil Comm oil and grease for their 15-22?

The word "grease" doesn't appear in the M&P15-22 manual (nor the M16/M4 operators manual). CLP is all you need. Why complicate a simple process?

15-22 manual says to use light coating of "high quality" oil. Personally, I'm from the old school where you grease things like the flat bolt rails on the 15-22. In my case I use a high tech gun grease I get from Midway. All the other stuff on the 15-22 gets treated with CLP. I'm thinking about using Eezox in place of CLP, but haven't yet.

In a wet climate, you better believe I will use a light coat of light grease on certain parts of an M4/M16 or AR15. Even more so if one is going to be doing a lot of full auto or rapid semi-auto fire.

Light coat of oil is okay for plinking on the range, for heavy duty use you need more than oil that cooks off. Of course its a different story in the sandbox. many will disagree, and many will agree. To each his own poison.

TW25b is a great semi fluid lube. Used it on deployment, and even when shooting a lot it doesn't burn off. S&W premium lube is better than CLP in my opinion.

Mil-Comm TW25B

I put a little TW25B on our 15-22's bolt rails. I don't know if it really needs it, but I have it around for the pistols, and seem to enjoy applying it
I keep TW25B around for Pistol Slides (Sig P226, and a Misquito), and it works great there. I like the syring Top Gun sells here:
TW25B grease 0.5 oz reclosable syringe - Top Gun Supply
It's not hard to refill from a tube (much cheaper that way).
