I'm curious what all the Beretta users use for lubrication on the wear surfaces? I'd say a lot use grease but it looks like Beretta recommends going with just oil. What do you use?

Grease the locking lug holes in the barrel and keep them clean! If you do it will never need an oversize fork! Jeff

Another shooter and I got into a discussion of grease vs. oil several years ago. I use grease but the other guy argued that oil does a great job in engines and their parts are subject to a lot more heat, dirt and pressure than those of firearms. His point was correct but engines have a pump that continually replenishes the oil film on the moving parts; guns do not, so when that film wears away, there is no new coating to take its place.

Grease on the locking lugs and trunions, oil on the ejectors and sides of the monobloc.
I get lubriplate white grease in little toothpaste tubes and keep one in every gun case. As soon as it gets dirty, I wipe it off and reapply. Good enough for a M14 in combat, good enough for the O/U at the club. What ever you use, keep it clean and you gun will probably outlast you.
