The lube discussions for the 1911 seem to always include the desire for staying ability and viscosity for slide movement, barrel to bushing, etc. - for a grease or oil to stay in place and not flow from the parts. Over the weekend, I was doing some "logging" on my 3 acre lot; while I was filling my chainsaw reservoir for the chain lube, it dawned on me to think about the nature of chain lube and how it would work for a 1911 lube - it is made to protect for extreme friction and it flows like honey - very sticky. I don't know of problems for 1911 use, but the stuff seems to fit the bill. For those familiar with chain oil and the 1911, what do you think. Thanks.
