I've always used hoppes and breakfree which is what our firearms instructors use. Since carrying a gun is part of my job (like Bird before he retired!) it's kind of important that the gun works when it's needed. Without getting into a debate about what the best gun oil/lubricant is (I'm sure there are many different brands that work equally well), I would not use something not specifically designed for a gun application. When they have lubricants spcifically designed for an application why would you possibly want to use an all purpose one?? Can't be cost since the dedicated gun lubes aren't expensive AND you don't use much anyway. (BTW - over lubricating is a common mistake).
Anyway - I use WD 40 for some things but don't know anyone who carries a gun for a living that uses it............
