froglube in cold weather

Maybe if it's a loose fit. Many guns these days are not.

Here is what Larry Vickers has to say on the matter. http://vickerstactical.com/tactical-tips/weapon-lubrication/

I have no idea who this guy is or care. I know that sand, and dirt, and grit will stick to grease or heavy oil and bind a gun. Not me but you welcome to do what you want. Just one thing, how to get all that oil to stay on the gun, unless it is thick, or grease. And the guy is wrong about WD for rust preventative, it is not. It is a water repellant and very light, and if a person counts on it for a rust preventative over any period of time they will encounter rust. So right off the bat ole Larry got that one wrong. But it must be true, he said it on the internet. Guess he never got yelled at by a drill instructor for too much lube on the weapon instead of the soldiers gun.

Glad to see all of the requested discussion on Froglube. Would be terrible if everyone ignored the intent of the thread and started their own bash everyone because I know best with my choice, which has nothing what-so-ever to do with Froglube...

im pretty new to froglube (only been using it 2 months now) and im wondering if anyone has used it in cold weather? i froze 2 pistols in my freezer and one of the pistols it actually froze the action and the other one made it act really sluggish. that was using the paste. any input from anyone who has used it cold or really really really cold weather?

My son and I have a couple of weapons with Froglube applied, I have a compact 1911 and he has both a SR40c and an AR-15. I have to admit, it does do very well on his AR. My compact 1911 however has started jamming since its application where it didn't before.

We have not had any trouble in the NC cold weather we have had so far this season however we do not put them in the freezer either.
