In regards to eating flaxseed oil instead of putting in on your M1 stock, consider the following.

Tongue in Cheek, of course, the joke is in the PS near the end (from an email)

what is WD-40?

Water Displacement #40. The product began from a search for a rust
preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was
created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical
Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a 'water
displacement' compound. They were successful with the fortieth
formulation,
thus WD- 40. The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their Atlas
missile parts.

Ken East (one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40
that
would hurt you. When you read the 'shower door' part, try it. It's the
first
thing that has ever cleaned that spotty shower door If yours is plastic,
it works just as well as glass. It's a miracle! Then try it on your stove
top... Voila! It's now shinier than it's ever been. You'll be amazed.
Here
are some of the uses:

1) Protects silver from tarnishing.

2) Removes road tar and grime from cars.

3) Cleans and lubricates guitar strings.

4) Gives floors that 'just-waxed' sheen without making it slippery.

5) Keeps flies off cows.

6) Restores and cleans chalkboards.

15) Camouflages scratches in ceramic and marble floors.

16) Keeps scissors working smoothly.

17) Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in homes.

18) It removes black scuff marks from the kitchen floor. Use WD-40 for
those
nasty tar and scuff marks on flooring. It doesn't seem to harm the
finish
and you won't have to scrub nearly as hard to get them off. Just
remember to
open some windows if you have a lot of marks

19) Bug guts will eat away the finish on your car if not removed
quickly.
Use WD-40!

20) Gives a children's play gym slide a shine for a super fast slide.

23) Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows and makes them easier to

37) Florida's favorite use is: 'cleans and removes love bugs from grills
and
bumpers.'

38)The favorite use in the state of New York: WD-40 protects the Statue
of
Liberty from the elements.
39) WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a LITTLE on live bait or lures and you
will
be catching the big one in no time. Also, it's a lot cheaper than the
chemical attractants that are made for just That purpose. Keep in mind
though, using some chemical laced baits or lures for fishing are Not
allowed
in some states.

40) Use it for fire ant bites. It takes the sting away immediately and
stops
the itch.

41) WD-40 is great for removing crayon from walls. Spray on the mark and
wipe with a clean rag.

42) Also, if you've discovered that your teenage daughter has washed and
dried a tube of Lipstick with a load of laundry, saturate the li pstick
spots
with WD-40 and re-wash. Presto! Lipstick is gone!

43) If you sprayed WD-40 on the distributor cap, it would displace the
moisture and allow the car to start.

P.S. The basic ingredient is FISH OIL.

P.P.S. I keep a can of WD-40 in my kitchen cabinet over the stove. It is
good for oven burns or any other type of burn. It takes the burned
feeling
away and heals with NO scarring.
