Field stripping the 4.0...help PLEASE!

[camoman5000]

I was just wondering how you field strip and clean the 4.0. All I want to know is how to oil it and take it apart just in case. If you can, please try to post picks of it taken apart.

Thanx for the help

I'll try to do a quick summary:

I usually take all the moving parts out which goes like this. First take out your "quick strip pin" the thing w/ the key ring in it, but be sure to hold on to that thing where your velocity adjuster is or it will go flying. Slowly let that push out and tip the marker back as u pull it out, you should get the spring w/ it plus another piece that looks kinda like a plastic nail. Then unscrew the protruding thing that sits under your barrel, opposite the velocity adjuster. You'll get another spring and some other parts with this. Then very carefully, pull on your bolt, just make sure it comes out smooth and doesn't get damaged. The plastic ring that came out, just guides your spring inside the gun. The bolt will pull out a second metal piece and they're not permanently attached so they will come apart from each other very easily. Then, what I like to do is to run a pull through squeegee through the entire top chamber to pull any debris or anything out. Then oil all the o-rings you see. Then put it back together in just the oposite order that you took it apart. When putting the bolt back in, you have to push on it a little bit and pull the trigger to get it to go all the way back in. I also like to drop a couple drops down my ball feed when the bolt is in the forward position, just to reduce friction a little more.
