Is putting oil in the cradle and then dry firing considered good lubrication? Or do I need to take the bolt out and lubricate individually?

I have a Spyder AMG Classic.

THANK YOU FOR ALL THOSE THAT PROVIDED INFORMATION TOWARD MY QUESTION.

I WILL OIL MY PARTS INDIVIDUALLY SINCE IT IS PRETTY EASY TO TAKE APART.

Depends on what marker. On a Mag that would probably be alright, on some cockers you'd just have to lube up the bolt. What marker are you using? Then maybe someone can help.

Cain oling it through the drop would be just fine on your AMG. Be sure to take the barrel off when you dry fire it though otherwise you will make quite a mess in your barrel.

Kingman reps have agreed with me that oiling your ASA and running oil through thte reg is NOT somehting you want to do. Why do you think Angel users take their gun apart to oil it? Shockers? Cockers? Any gun with a reg. However, if you didn't have a reg, it is nice to work some oil through the gun via the ASA, though I personall believe that when you have a gun as easy to strip as a Spyder or Matrix, oiling should be done directly to the parts, with the exception of the Spyder valve, which may be oiled by placing a few drops in the hole of the VA.

O $hit! I forgot that there is a reg on the AMG. Really sorry I hope you didn't oil it that way cause it will kill your gague. You should oil your hammer and bolt directly. Sorry again and Ebonclaw thanks for correcting me. Good luck with the AMG Cain.
