Been using it for years on ALL my guns. Hot or freezing cold, never an issue.

Whats a good oil and grease for extremely cold temps? Like 20 f and lower. I love shooting in the cold and snow, want to make sure my guns like it to.

I use Slip 2000 Extreme Weapons Grease on my AKs in the winter since it’s rated for well below zero afaik. Works great.

I like their grease and EWL 30. The grease does separate barely a little over the course of a full year, but I just stir it with the back of a wooden cotton swab. I’ve never had it dry though.

The EWL 30 is great for areas where normal lube (or the standard EWL) would drip off but you don’t want to have any a grease. It’s sort of like a motor oil consistency. I use it on all my handgun barrels, a light coat of it works well. Also works good on the AK bolt carrier main spring, which tends to thrash a bit during operation.

I also got all of these things for free when I called the company a while back. I asked em about the operating temps among other things, and the guy who created it sent me a bunch of free samples which lasted me a good year.
