Is choke tube lube really needed?

I just put eezox on mine and never have had a problem.

Any special kind or just your regular anti seize from hardware?

Mine is just a little Birchwood Casey tube.  It's at least 10 years old.

yep, I always lube my chokes.

I use the anti seize lube for brake calipers, works for my glocks, ar15s and choke tubes. Doesn't evaporate, is water proof and isn't affected by heat or cold and best of all is only like a dollar at the parts store, I just pick up a package when I am doing anything to my truck so I always have some on hand.

I had Clenzoil Hinge Pin Jelly personally recommended to me by a manufacturer of choke tubes.  Like someone said, you don't need it until you do.  It is dirt cheap, takes a few seconds and ensures you can unscrew them very easily when you want to.  My little tub is probably 5 years old and looks like I have hardly used any.  I use it on 4 different shotguns every time I change a choke.  I also hunt the salt some.  I gave it to my hunting family members as a Christmas present last year too.

Edit:  It also protects the threads of the choke when it is out of the gun in my choke pouch.  Easy peasy.
