In other words, do not worry about your marker rusting or anything silly like that. It will not rust.

You should put a couple of drops of oil in your tippmann after every day of use. Simply look into the opening at the back of the marker where the silver bolt is visible. There is a ring around the bolt you need to oil. You can also put a couple of drops in the opening in the ASA. Unscrew your tank, put a couple of drops in the hole inside the ASA, then put the tank back on and dry fire about ten times. Be sure you take your barrel off when you do this so you wont slime up the inside with oil. You should dissasseble your marker about every three months and oil up the sear and everythig else that moves.
Credit goes to Kevin!
