I generally melt some home made bullet lube in a pan- in the oven on its' lowest setting- then soak all revolver parts (unassembled) in it. Then I reassemble the firearm. This seems to protect as well as lubricate the gun very well ... most of the time. But it's winter now, and on even moderately cold days the lube stiffens the action so that it can cause malfunctions.
I am thinking about stealing the wife's cooking oil and using that after the next cleaning. But before I risk my health doing that, I thought I'd ask what ya'll do this time of year. Anyone know how to thin down a paraffin and Crisco based lube so it will adhere well but not gum up the works?
