I have had my gun for over a year and went with out oiling it, i figured now would probably be a good time to start, so what parts on the inside should I oil?

oil all the o-rings basically. Get some "gold cup lube" , put a few drops in your ASA, screw in your tank and just dry fire it for a few shots. I am assuming that you have a Spyder, so its alright to use gold cup on it.

Hey, what kind of gun do you have? Some require a little bit more care. You should oil it before you store it, and before/after you play. I strip my 98C after a day of playing, use a napkin or something to clean the bolt and everything off, then put a few drops in.

Oil all of the moving parts. If you don't want to take your gun apart then just cock it, oil in front/the front of the bolt. Uncock it and oil the back of the bolt and where it slides. Take off your barrel and oil behind the threads (where the balls come down). You can oil where you attach the Co2 if you wan't as well but you don't have to...uhmm...yeah that's all I can think of.

But if you should strip your gun to oil it right, because there are springs you can't reach from the outside.

here's the easiest way to oil a spyder, should take u ~5min

Remove the field strip pin, pull all the parts out, Put a few drops on the bolt & hammer, then re-assemble

put about 4-5 drops of oil into ur ASA and screw ur tank in, then shoot the gun about 20-50 times... this will throw oil through the valve and make sure everything is in good working order

make sure your barrel is off when your shooting.

1. Unscrew your low pressure chamber ( small screw in cylinder under the barrel)
Pull out the spring, cup seal, and spring guide. Set them aside. You will only need to oil the o-ring on the volumizer. You can do the cup seal if you'd like too. put it on the metal, since this is the part that will slide)

2. If oyu have a foregrip, go ahead and unscrew it (to get it off easier, remove the bottomline. There are two 10-32 screws (use a 5/32 allen wrench) under it. There's an O-ring on the port reducer (think you unscrewed form the gun). Oil it.

3. Pull out the field strip pin. Clean off your bolt, hammer, and all the contents that pull out. When you handle the bolt/hammer assembly, pinch it with your finger and thumb over the pin that holds them togethor. This will keep it form flying apart. Yeah, clean it, and oil it up real good (chances are theres paint caked everywhere, so bust out the Q-tips)

4. Remove your trigger frame by the two screws. These need a 1/8" allen.

Your gun should be pretty much completely disassembled now. Take the body and flip it upside down. Theres a brass screw under there. Pull it out with a flathead screwdriver, and grab a squeegie (or a pencil). Stick your squeegie/pendis through where the volumizer/low pressure chamber was. The valve will slide out. Theres two o-ring on there. Clean them off and oil them up.

And put it back togethor exactly as you left it. Use your user's manual if you need more help/diagrams.

Put oil on the body of the bolt, and the top of the hammer too. These parts come in contact witht he body and do a lot of grinding. Also, put some oil on the cocking rod.

Once your marker is nice and oiled up, and is back togethor, put another five drops of oil in the ASA. Fire the marker about 20 times (fire into a wadded up paper towel and cover up the feedneck, as oil will blow out/around).

For future oiling of your cup seal and valve, instead of disassembling everything, degas your marker, and take off the volumizer. Put four or five drops of oil inside the volumizer, and screw it back on.. Now fire.

Before every new tank, put two drops of oil in the ASA.
