Have seen a lot of folks asking about oil and grease for their firearms. I guess Sig listened and has come out with their new NEW PREMIUM COMPLETE CARE SYSTEM. A lot of money for a few dabs of product. Maybe the Sig snobs might buy it, but not me.
After almost 50 years as an A&P mechanic, (aviation), this is what I use. This is what I trust.
Oil: Castrol Transmax Z. Made for transmissions and gear boxes. Not engines. A little dab goes a long way
Saw it once at O'Reilly's. Can find it on Amazon.
Grease: AeroShell 33MS. It's black because it's full of moly. Again, a little dab goes a long way. Amazon.
Both are synthetic. You will never even approach the temp and pressure limits of either one.
Try this on any Sig P series pistol. Clear it, cock it, rack the slide. Some easy, some hard. Try the trigger. How does it feel? Strip it and clean it. All lube gone. Clean and dry. A dab of Z on things that rotate on pins. A dab of MS33 on everything else. Q-tip works. Pull fuzz off one end. Grease your rails, they like it. Back together. Close your eyes and function test again. Easy and hard. Notice a difference?
A quart of oil and a tube of grease should last at least 10 years.
