put some oil on the bolt then whenever you take the gun apart put some on all the o-rings

the best way to oil your gun is to put a few drops of oil in your bottom line adapter, in that little hole where the air source goes in. Next, gas up the gun, and fire away! this makes sure that oil gets cycled through every part of the gun.

yes thats a great way to do it.. only.. make sure u take off ur barrel first or you will have a nice oily barrel (BAD). shoot at least 20 shots before putting it on i'd say

also when you oil it without taking it apart and you take your barrel off you should put like 10-20 drops down where you barrel screws in so that you bolt in nice and oiled.

well make sure that you dry fire your gun a lot but let the oil drip down around the bolt before you do it. then when you dry fire shoot up.

10-20 DROPS?! are you crazy? thats a LOT of oil.

Take your gun apart, put a drop on each oring, and put 3 drops on your bolt and striker (the moving parts)

thats the easiest way to explain it

they are drops so thats not really a lot. you gotta make sure the bolt is nice and lubed up. hehe

I remember a while back i was haveing problems with my spyder. I brought it to the paintball shop. They took it apart and found rust on the bolt. I told them i clean the gun all the time. She asked if i have ever oiled it. I never have before. So like once every two weeks i oil all my guns. I just put 3 drops in the bottum line adapter.
