Best lubricant for a Glock?

I just picked up my new Glock 27 and I have a question as to what is the best lubricant for this handgun. For all of my other handguns (i.e. Sig Sauer, Beretta, etc) I use "Ultima-Lube Grease" from Wilson Combat. I like this lubricant because it has a thicker viscosity and seems to stay in place better and evaporate less in high temperatures than the liquid lubricants. However, after reading the Glock manual, I'm not sure this grease is the best lubricant. Glock seems to recommend oil and states that their pistols are designed to operate properly with only a small amount of oil spread thinly along the appropriate lubricating points.

What is everyone else using for their Glocks? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I don't have a serious answer.
    But that will not stop me from saying:
    You mean Tupperware needs to have lube?

    That being said I have never used anything special on Glocks or the clone Smith Sigma. Nothing fancy, just 3 in 1 oil.

    I currently own 6 Glocks of various caliburs and I use Breakfree on all of them....Never had a problem with any of them...I have fired them on 100 degree days and have shot a them in -10 degree weather also. The Breakfree has never failed me...

    I have been using Rem Oil for years on all my guns including a Glock. Works just fine and is available almost anywhere. I recently have bought some Breakfree just to try something different, but I doubt it will make any real difference. Just use a little oil in any case, Glocks don't need much.

    In the past used Breakfree, recently started using EEZOX with very favorable results.
