Gosh, I remember gun slick. I'm sure it worked okay, but I never liked using it because it made me feel like I was making the gun that was just cleaned dirty again! I think I still have an old tube of it sitting in the bottom of my gun cleaning box.

One product for protection, particularly for long term protection, which I don't see mentioned is Finish Line Dry Bike Lube. It is a waxy substance with teflon fluoropolymer. It goes on as a liquid & sets up in a dry, wax like film. It is made for bike chains to protect them from dirt, mud, grime & water. If it'll do that, it'll protect just about any thing.
I primarily use it for protecting exterior of slide & frame, but have also used it on rotating parts & slide rails, in lieu of grease. It does not seem to dry out or evaporate as oils & grease will. Apply it, let it dry, then wipe excess. When shooting, heat converts it back to a liquid. That is why there is a caution about using it in the bore. I've never tried it, but someone I know did & he said it created a "sludge" in the barrel.
Found in bicycle departments/stores. I get mine at Academy Sports (only local source I've found) or can be purchased on line.

In my search and reading reviews I found 2 products i have ordered a small bottle to try. Both products in their description state "l9ng term storage protection " which is what I am looking for.
I may be disappointed with them, but you don't know if you don't try. One is Break Free CO Collectors and the other is M Pro 7 Gun Oil.

OP: does heavy residue accumulate during your typical session?
My guns see pretty mod. round counts (seldom more than 40-60 rds. In each) , , thereforeā¦.
Ballistol appears to work well for such situations in the VZ-58, (āHKā) PTR-91, FAL and M1A.
Secondary: being Non-Toxic is good.
Sidenote: What does the Ukrainian Army use?
