Semi-auto pistol = steel sliding fast on steel

Chain saw = steel sliding fast on steel

Chain saw bar oil?

Nope, not always. My carry 1911 has a polymer frame with an aluminum sub-frame. Same with my P3AT. Lots of semi-autos out there with aluminum or alloy frames.
 
Did I hear something about a group buy? I'm in for some and a buddy of mine wants twice as much as I get.

I am also interested in this, when I saw the thread started in 07' I got excited and thought "by now its gotta be on the market!" Depending on how expensive "expensive" is, I wouldn't mind knowing where he gets it from and ordering from them. That would be providing of course if he doesn't decide to market it himself (I dont want to step on any toes) ;)
 
So i went out to the range today, and ran the hell out of one of my AKs. Kept having to re-oil the rails.

It'd sure be nice to have some wonder-goo to test.:D
 
Yeah, ya'all kin buy it from me! I have carefully read the posts, and deciphered the secret! The secret ingredient (ninja assassin teams will shortly be dispatched to silence me but it will be too late) Is--- drum roll....Slug slime! Each giant banana slug will be packed in a sandwich bag and shipped directly to your door. Simply grab the naked snail and rub it vigorously over your firearms moving parts. Presto- you got the slickest gun in town! See me at the fair, I will be next to the guy selling the Acme slicer-dicers!
 
Guys, it's out. You just have to go to his(Mr. Berryhills) website. Ordered mine last week, it got here yesterday. Haven't had time to use it yet.
 
I detail stripped and cleaned a new to me Dan Wesson this weekend. I used the Berryhill stuff to lube it.

Very slick.

Stays put well.

"Cushiony"/"spongy" (read - soak up recoil and help the pistol shoot "soft")

Makes your fingers slick and you drop everything, even after repeatedly wiping them off. Not necassarily bad. Means it's good stuff.

Similar to Slide Glide, but different. More like thick oil than thin grease. I am looking forward to seeing how it does after a few range trips and wipe downs. So far after two short range trips, it is still smooth as silk.

Are we referring to Dave Berryhill here? I went to his website and do not see anything about this oil/lube? Where are you looking?
 
It's only on backorder because he's out of the small plastic tubs that he sells it in. He's not out of actual product. Don't panic boys.
 
Yes, due to the big demand I just ran out of plastic jars. They should arrive in the next few days and I'll start filling back orders.

Thank you very much for your support!
 
Mr. Berryhill,

I just ordered two containers of your product based on this great write up. I'm hoping you could post back here and let us all know if you received the jars so I don't have my head explode waiting on pins and needles:p:D
 
Got mine a little while ago and promptly threw it on 2 GLOCKs and my Saiga. So far so good, it makes the action on all three seem smoother - but who knows how much of that is plecebo.

I'm going to leave the first application on both GLOCKs for a few more range sessions, with the only cleaning in between being a couple runs down the barrel with a bore snake. Considering how long the stuff stayed on my fingers, I have a feeling it's going to have a lasting affect on the gun surfaces even after they have been wiped down.

The Saiga I haven't had a chance to shoot yet, but this lube on top of the polishing I did to the disconnector and hammer makes the action smoother than any other AK I've shot before.

Oh, and I considered ordering a couple more jars just for good measure - but liberally lubed three guns and only used a BB sized amount of lube for each. The jar I got should be good for a thousand cleanings at least... Still might order a couple more...
 
This stuff is simply amazing. It stays where it's put, and is nearly odorless, but unlike most grease, which makes cleaning kinda sticky and messy, this stuff cleans up in a snap.

Before you apply it, degrease the gun thoroughly. The first application, I put it on a little heavier, and then (this is the important part) sit and play with the gun. You'll notice that the more you work this stuff in, the slicker everything works.

After the first application/cleaning, you only need a light film. I can't recommend this stuff enough.

The stuff is incredibly cheap, and you get enough in that little jar to last decades.

Two thumbs up!

Just bought and got mine. Very fast shipping which is always nice since I cant wait to try new stuff! I was surprised it was red. Dont know what color I expected it to be, but I guess red wasn't what i pictured. Put some on the rails, outside of barrell, and the barrell lugs. Where else are you guys applying this on your guns? Now I have to go shoot!
 
One word of caution with this stuff is to use it VERY lightly. A very thin film is all you need for proper lubrication - and any more than that is just going to attract grit, carbon and crud since the stuff is pretty thick and sticky...
