Thank heavens I can't think of an appropriate emoticon to use.....does anyone else NOT need emoticons in their lives?
Anyway....when I regularly remove and clean the triggers on target rifles I'm usually make the final rinse in a 2 stroke-like mix with a little petrol and 2 stroke oil. Lately, I've been wondering if that wonderful, concentrated, automotive oil additive friction reducer I have for the car, used instead of just the usual 2 stroke oil, wouldn't be a better residue than a 'normal' oil.
Here's a chance....who has a favourite, but different, trigger lube technique, or maybe a comment on my proposed 'what if' use of a friction reducer mixed in a solvent, as a residue on the moving parts of triggers.

Trigger Lube
I don't even have to remove my rifle from it's bedding to remove my trigger when I was it in acetone.
When I am real lazy I just give it a squirt of action blaster after I clean the barrel.
I also agree that a good trigger needs no oil but only as long it is cleaned ever time the barrel does.
