I'm a big fan of Crusader Weaponry's Slipstream lubricants, both the oil and grease.  Never tried the lubrikit products.   The Slipstream stuff is a little spendy, but it definitely works.   And a little bit of it goes quite a long ways.

Got hooked on it after reading Larry Correia's post on it here: http://larrycorreia.wordpress.com/2013/01/15/slipstream-the-best-gun-lube-there-is/

I use the Lubri-Plate on slides of semi-autos and for hammer/sear interfaces, but not in a puny syringe like that. I bought a can of it from Brownells, which I expect will last the rest of my lifetime and should survive several grandchildren. The stuff I bought IS the stuff the Army used for the M14 rifle -- the stuff in this kit is not.

For oil I use Castrol Syntec 5W50 synthetic motor oil with a small amount of super-fine powdered molybdenum disulphide mixed in. For touch-up at the range, I carry a syringe of Gunbutter in my range bag.

So these people want you to spend $19 for two tiny syringes of the wrong grease plus FOUR whole ounces of oil, when you can buy a lifetime (plus) supply of the correct grease for ten bucks and a quart of Castrol at any Wal-Mart for about $6.50 -- even with tax and shipping, you can get a lifetime supply for this kit costs.

P.T. Barnum would be proud.
