shotty lube

[LukeCDC]

i've recently bought a Double Eagle shotgun and noticed that the pump slide is starting to wear a little, so im wondering what the best thing to lengthen the life of the slide is (it is plastic remember) oil, grease or if anyone has used somthing else

Anything will be better than nothing, including butter.

If it is just for the slide action any type of grease (except a graphite based grease) should do the job nicely.

If its plastic only use Silicon as other petroleum based greases might degrade the plastic.
