S&W 15-22 vs AR15 lubrication requirements

[Mac 1]

I cleaned my new S&W M&P 15-22, (22 caliber), yesterday. I haven't shot it yet. In my previous experiences with a Bushmaster XM15, (5.56 nato rounds), I ran the bolt quitewet with lube oil. Do you guys run the S&W the same way? Thanks, Mac

gun grease on my bolt carrier thank you very much. Light weapons oil in a few other places. No need to run them wet, although some believe it makes cleanup easier. I think it just collects more residue.
