How do you oil your gun when you got co2 on it? Is it ok to take off the tank, put some oil in the bottomline adapter than put the tank back on then cycle the oil? I think a quick-disconnect would be the best idea, but do you need an on/off valve for that? I dunno what I'm talking about! Tell me how you oil yers.

dude, you really don't want to oil your bottomline because that will just gunk it up. If you are proficient at dissassembling your marker take it apart and oil the bolt the striker, and maybe your cup seal for a better seal, these are what I oil, I don't know of anything else that needs oiling, but this is what I do. Anyways hope that helped a little.

oil every o-ring you see too, o-rings can be expensive to keep replacing, my local shop sells 10 for $5, 50c for a little piece of round plactic, i mean realy.

damn, that's alot for an o-ring, my old field gave them out like they were pieces of dirt, the owner's bed was a pile of o-rings, and maybe some busted condoms too, I dunno, I didn't get a really good look. Is it ok to run oil through an expansion chamber or will that mess it up?

i think you can just put oil in the adapter and just shoot oil into your gun. just don't do it if you have a regulator. i mean i do it on my tippmann m98 and it works fine. heck i even use WD-40 instead of gun oil and it works fine.
wd-40 eats o-rings, cough up the 3.00 and get some pb specific oil
Trust me its worth it
