I just got a new derlin bolt for my M3 sniper. I just read that you shouldn't use regular pb gun oil on it or it will swell up. But I already oiled the whole thing. I took it out of the gun and dryed it off, but what else should I do? Is it ruined?

Does it still fit? To my knowledge oiling a delrin bolt will have it expand, check if it fits. Sometimes when the bolt isn't wide enough, some people oil it.

ok well u oiled it about 2 days ago, and does it STILL fit? if so, try dry firing, and take it out and if its fine, put it back in and try shooting paintballs, and if its fine, then it should all be good... thats what i would do if i oiled a delrin bolt
