Something not specifically designed as a gun product, but...
Occasionally you don't need to dump a large amount of lube in or on the weapon all at once. A needle oilier minimizes the volume put out and lets you precisely apply the oil where you want it. There are various plastic bodied oiler bottles available that work well on the cleaning bench, but leak if stored on your person or in your kit. This metallic style of needle oiler works fairly well.

Each end is sealed with an o-ring. With the caps in place, it can be carried just about anywhere. A pocket clip is included.

One press of the top button depresses the internal plunger and slowly (very slowly) releases a single drop of oil at a time. I found this idea elsewhere (I'm sure I've never had an original thought) and while looking for one I noticed that the same product appears to be available under several brand names, such as: Titan, General Tools and Neiko Tooks. Most automotive stores stock these.
This tool is handy if you need to apply a few drops to your BCG during a class, put a drop on the sear surface of trigger group or a drop on each side of your pistol rails. Cost is about $12.
