So my S&W 1066 should be in my procession some time next week. The firearm has not been fired for probably 12 years now. I wanted to clean and lube it properly before I take it to the range and shoot it for the first time.
According to the manual I should add a single drop of oil to each side of the slide and 2 drops on the barrel (screen shot of the instructions are attached). I do have Hoppe’s No. 9™ Lubricating oil.
My question is, do most people use lube on the slide or do they use a type of grease there?
Thanks in advance, James
