So, I just got my new CMP service grade Saginaw S.G. M1 Carbine yesterday, and it's all good and cleaned up.My queston is, should I lube with oil, grease, or both? The 1942 army field manual mentions oil to lube, but I'm wondering if thats what most feel is best, or if grease is the way to go. Being fairly similar to the Garand, for which grease is universally recomended, it seems like the carbine would want grease too, but its hard to argue with the field manuals, which say grease for Garand, oil for carbine. Any thoughts? I have a wide selecton of oils, and for gease I have a bunch of surplus USGI grease for the Garand. What say you?
If you all give me good answers, I'll reward you with pics as soon as it's lubed and re-assembled.
Thanks
