I have ordered a 50 gallon drum of 30w and 5,000 of those little plastic bottles. I am going to label it Hawk Tuah Girl gun oil and make a fortune!
"here's a little story about a man named jed.
was a mountaineer, barely kept his family fed.
out one day he was shootin' at some food, and up comes bubblin', a bubblin' crude.
oil that is. texas tea"
unfortunately, the majority of buyer won't even own a gun!

My only objection to mobile one is that it has known carcinogens in it

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away I worked as a machinist. I bought a bottle of this to use on my tools. I still have it. when it runs out I may replace it or go buy something else.

If anyone wonders what exactly is in Lucas Extreme Duty Gun oil, someone sent a sample to Blackstone Labs for analysis.
Tests out as a motor oil weight wise as a thick 40 weight, or similar to a 75w-90 gear oil.
zinc and phosphorus are anti wear additives in motor oil.
My oil analyses from car have averaged between 900 and 1200 ppm (parts per Million) of zinc and phosphorus.
Compare that to the >16000 and >13000 ppm in the Lucas gun oil.
Other gun oil results will vary

Does this mean we need to change the oil on guns every 8,000 rounds??If anyone wonders what exactly is in Lucas Extreme Duty Gun oil, someone sent a sample to Blackstone Las for analysis.

3 months or 3000 miles!! on blue steel 1911s
Low-capacity magazine models maybe more often since there aren't enough rounds to get them up to temp

Many good oils available. Gun cleaners are a different story, some are definitely better than others.
