I hear people saying that you have to lubricate your gun. I lubricate/oil inside the co2 threads. I was wondering, where do I oil it inside the gun? What parts inside? Also, will Gold Cup Gun Oil work for this?
Also, how do you get past taking out the quick disconnect pin? All that happens to me is the two things in the back come out and the spring is there. How do you take more of it out?
Thanks.

You should lube all the orings in your marker. just place a drop or two. Gold cup is fine. KC oil is better. They have oil specifically made for N2 and CO2. You can also place a couple of drops into your ASA and dry fire a couple of times and that will lube your marker up pretty well as well.

im guessing you have a spyder or piranha, but it doesnt mattr which you have. put your hand on the back of the gun so the parts dont fly out, pull the pin and remove the internals slowly, keep them in order so u know what goes where when putting it together. now take your bolt, wipe it off, then put a few drops of oil on it and one drop on the striker (black thing under the bolt) now put everything back in and your good to go, its easy after the first time

or put a few drops in your beaver tail, gas up your gun, take off the barrel, and fire about 20 rounds or so through the gun.

Gun oil is not ideal for paintball. The oil may get gooey becuase paintball markers use different types of air to propell paintballs. Guns on the other hand us gunpowder. So the type of lubrication required is different. KC oil will not gum up, dry up, or damage your marker like other oils do. I do not reccommend any other lubricants or oils other than those meant for paintball. I like KC oil. They make specific oils for both N2 and Co2 air systems.
