    I do--for cleaning. Made up several gallons for cleaning my machineguns yrs ago and still use it for general cleaning. I've got about a quart left.

    lube with lsa mediun, mobil 1 or hightem wheel bearing grease

    Same here, Ed's red for cleaning and Mobil 1 full synthetic for oil and Mobile 1 wheel bearing grease. I have used these for years with great success.

    Does anyone use Eds Red? lol

    Sort of. I mixed up a batch of Mobil 1, Mobil 1 ATF and a bit of STP years ago and am still using it on most anything. It makes a good cleaner too. For 1911s though, I like to use a bit of SlideGlide on the rails. I sometimes do that on CZs too, but for handguns, I mostly just use the Mobil 1 concoction. For ARs, I like Slip2000.
