A friend of mine with HPD says Frog Lube is what their armorers are promoting. Their video demo is pretty impressive.

I'll probably be getting that when my Militec-1 runs out.

For oil, I use Automatic Transmission fluid. It stays longer and is super cheap.

Re: Looking for a new gun grease.

http://www.militec1.com/

I was having serious issues with my carry piece until I used it.

Militec-1 is a synthetic that works best if you heat everything up before you apply.

I put the slide, barrel, and lug into my toaster oven for a little "top brown". It takes less than a minute for your parts to get too hot to touch. I removed everything and then applied a thin layer on the areas that rub. I haven't had any type of malfunction at all for the past two years...nothing. My Cougar just runs and runs no matter what I feed it.

Later, after I started shooting IDPA, I noticed that some of my mags wouldn't fall free. A fellow club member suggested that I do the same thing with the mags but after the grease was on and they cooled off, wipe them down as best I could or else the mags would collect dust. The tiny little bit that bonded with the metal of the slide would be enough for the mags to drop free and he was right. Before, there was always one or two that I had to shake the pistol in order for them to fall out. Now, they all just fall out quickly.

I'm pleased.
