Pen Oiler

Every so-called expert on proper gun lubrication is only an expert through his/her own experience. In my experience, the one thing I discovered was that if you asked ten experts, you should expect ten answers. Temperature plays a big part in lubrication. You know all these TV commercials about how your engine gets gunked up with the wrong (or old) oil? Well, think about the temperatures that the moving parts of your gun are exposed to (well, the slide and linkage, anyway) when you shoot a lot. Dust, dirt, and gunpowder residue is a big deal, too. And if you live in colder climates, that can be another problem, especially going from the cold outside to warmth within. Enter: Gun Butter. Gun Butter is a synthetic lubricant. It’s to RemOil what Mobil One is to QuakerState. Generally, I gravitate towards the old, tried and true. But in this case, the case for science and the logic of the thing won me over. Which was a good thing, because one tiny bottle of Gun Butter ain’t cheap. They say (“they” being the Van Patten family) that “good things come in small packages.” In this case, they’re right. Gun Butter comes in a small bottle with a very long, steel, needle-like applicator, perfect for running a tiny bead of Gun Butter down your slide rails. Even better, a lil’ dab’l do ya – you don’t need much Gun Butter to do the job. In fact, it’s almost to the point where the less you use, the better off you are. Almost. I found that (as advertised) there’s no need to lube my gun every time I clean it. Gun Butter was formulated by a gun-friendly team of Aerospace Engineers (Yes, Virginia… It IS rocket science!) From their website: Gun Butter is for all types of metal-to-metal, metal-to-plastic, and plastic-to-plastic mechanisms’. Our lubrication reduces galling and wear, provides two-year rust protection that extends the service life of your favorite recreational mechanical device. Gun Butter Oil is not grease; its oil will resists change and perform consistently below -20 degrees to over 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Our complete all-weather lubricant will not burn up or evaporate in summer’s heat; it functions normally in freezing weather, stays intact during pouring rain, and repels debris. In operational use Gun Butter’s unsurpassed smoothness and consistency is unparalleled due to its longevity and ease of function. Your mechanism has continued performance assured because Gun Butter’s adhesion exceeds the film-strength of molybdenum grease. I don’t know what they put in this stuff. But I can tell you it works. And it works in all kinds of weather. It’s easy to apply, and one bottle isn’t even close to needing a refill after years of use on every gun I own. Is Gun Butter the be-all, end-all solution to your gun lubrication woes, and more importantly, will it solve the failure-to-run problems that plague some of our writer’s guns? I dunno. All I can say is that it works for me, and it’s quickly become the only lubrication I’ll use on my guns.

If you're a firearm enthusiast like me, you know that keeping your guns in top working condition is essential. Over the years, I’ve tried a variety of oils and lubricants, but none have impressed me quite like Gun Butter. This space-age lubricant promises to take firearm maintenance to the next level, and after using it extensively, I have to say—it delivers, though not without some quirks. Here's my detailed review. From the moment I saw the small, sleek bottle of Gun Butter, I had high expectations. The packaging is clean, compact, and no-nonsense, reflecting the product's premium positioning. The label claims it offers *“unparalleled lubrication and protection,”* and right away, I was intrigued. It’s marketed as a high-performance lubricant designed to minimize friction, improve smoothness, and extend the life of your firearm—exactly what I was looking for. Applying Gun Butter to my firearms was straightforward. The precision needle applicator makes it easy to get the oil exactly where you need it, without making a mess. A few drops go a long way, and the lubricant spreads easily, creating a deep, protective sheen. As soon as I applied it to the slide of my pistol and the bolt of my rifle, I noticed an immediate difference. The slickness is *incredible.* Once applied, the moving parts of my guns felt like they were gliding on air. Racking the slide and cycling the bolt required minimal effort—so smooth, in fact, that it almost felt like the gun was moving itself. The reduction in friction is genuinely impressive, and this stuff clearly does its job.

My first time using this oil. Great product, not cheap, but I'm hoping it will last a while. The newer plastic guns unlike older metal guns only require a dot of oil in certain places in the frame. This product is just what's needed, you can place a drop of oil right where it is needed. I like it so far, we will see how long a tube of it lasts, like I said good product but not cheap.

I heard about this Gun Butter Pen Oiler firearm lubricant from a friend, and wanted to try it out. It works great, even better than regular oils, for me anyway, and is thicker, so it stays put, and has a pinkish hue, so you can see where you applied. The needle point allows you to put the lubricant exactly where you need it, and keep it off the parts that must be left dry. I am very pleased with the way this works, and highly recommend.

Great product
