I need solutions for a mini bottle of firearm lubricant that isn't going to leak all over the place.  Something that would fit inside the grip of an AR would be ideal, but not required... what do you use?

this works when you pinch it, I mean...you know what I mean.

M Pro-7 is my humble recommendation. The small bottle won't fit inside an AR grip, but you don't need a lot of it anyway. Good for other stuff too.

Unlikely to recommend Hawk-Tua for firearms. Any here who would should consult another member.

Take an old eye drop bottle, rinse it out real well, and suck up some Mobil one. Cheap and easy. You know it'll stay sealed because the eye drop bottles are designed to travel.

Amazon sells 50 packs of 10ml dropper bottles.  I fill them with mobile 1 and have one in every pistol grip, chest rig, ruck, etc.

If you're going to pay a lot for a little bit of something ordinary, it should at least be an interesting color, and Lucas seems to have that figured out.

I might have a few bottles stashed all over the place…..and then I still have plenty of backups.  I do prefer the needle dropper for home use.

If you find one with a Luer lock, like the Lucas posted above, you can get all sorts of other needles.
