Go to Different's M1A site and download the PDF titled "M14 Rifle Preservation and Soft Lubrication"

I use Lubriplate #105 Get it from an outboard motor shop or from Brownells. Works good for me.

Years ago I started using RIG on my rifles for protection.

I also discoved ita a great grease for the M1A and M1s. I even got it for my AK NGs Rifle Team's M14s. It works great. Been using it for almost 30 years on my super match M1A.

They need grease in some places...any grease is better than none.

LSA is still a decent lube for the M1A and is widely available. I have used it for many years on my Devine TX Match Grade and Devine TX Factory original Select fire. I still use it for the bolt roller bearing and use CLP in the raceways.

I use XF-7 Weapons Lubricant on all of my M14s.
It also works wonders on my DC Vortex when I use the suppressor.
