Any gun-grade grease will do the trick. I personally prefer to use Brian Enos’ Slide Glide, Shooter’s Choice grease including a cool syringe for later use or Lubriplate found at Brownells.com.

Which is better Sig or Glock?

The Glock’s polymer construction makes it the lighter choice. However, that means that when you are using a higher caliber, the SIG handles recoil better than the Glock does. If you are looking for a well-concealed carry weapon, or a lighter one, the Glock will edge out the SIG in this category.

How do you clean a Glock P226?

Run patches through the barrel, one after another, until they come out mostly or entirely clean. Then run a pre-saturated patch through just one more time. Use a nylon brush to clean the rest of your P226’s slide and frame. A little cleaner such as SEAL 1 CLP Plus Paste or Liquid on the brush goes a long way.
