Silicone Oil Alternative?

I recently bought 3 mid cap AK mags but I don't have any silicone oil for them (they need to be lubed or they jam) or any store within 100km that sells any. So is there any alternative to silicone oil I can lube up my mags with?

Your best bet will be to open the mags up and get rid of any burrs or crappy plastic mold lines with a file or sand paper. I don't usually recommend oil in your mags since after your mag it goes into your hop up and then ruins your shot consistency(or can atleast)

The store I got it from said they need to be lubed because as of now, the bbs bind with each other about 3 shots in.
Excuse my webart:

Something similar to that.

another option you can is silicone lube from a sex shop since those are designed to be safe on rubber, it sounds silly but it works

Jig a Loo is silicone lubricant.. it's safe for rubber .. but you don't want any lube on your hopup anyway.. just use it where it's needed.. I poke a shot into the mags.. and let em dry .. works good

non greasy .. leaves a dry slick film.. excellent for Magazines ( also good for the recoil spring in an AR buffer Tube )

I also use it to displace water in the WE trigger group ( and in Trigger groups of my RS as well)
