Question Best smelling gun oil

The Lucas Oil Hunting Oil is similar to the the Extreme Duty Gun Oil, but has no odor.
 
I know you said oil but my absolute favorite gun cleaning product smell was the Hoppes gun grease before they changed the product :(. I only have one tube that I’m holding since 2012 ish lol. And I’ve tried to buy some off eBay with no luck. I just can’t find any of it anywhere!!!
 
Yall use gun oil? When I first got into fire arms I lubed up with synthetic motor oils mobile 1, penzoil, etc. now I grew up and use all Bore tech. But I do like the smell of good ol remoil
 
I use Remoil in the spray can for hinges and door locks. Frog Lube is used on my garage door rails, super smooth, no squeaks.
Hoppes #9 makes a great smelling salt. It will wake the dead.

The guns get Slip.
 
I don’t care what it smells like. But whatever I use MUST meet these requirements. It must be fully synthetic and it must have molybdenum disulfide or tungsten disulfide powder mixed in with it.

And I can mix one of the two powders into it, if necessary.

FYI, this combination is absolutely the very best lubricant. The synthetic part keeps it from thickening in the cold. And the powder is slicker than Teflon.

Damn you lubricating nascar? Jk
Good info, where do you buy the powders, are there any that meet your criteria off the shelf?

How affective is it on build up? Might have to try this for the same reason.

G96 is what BCM uses I think…

Can't really speak to that I haven't had to deal with any major buildup; I usually clean my gear after each use (i know i know you don't have to but I do. Blame the Corps for brainwashing me).
