[SonicGroove]

from a friend who sold it to me for 50 bucks. its like 6 yrs old and only has a Dye Barrel. I dont think it has any mods on it. ANYWAYS .. he told me i needed to oil it...I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO OIL! or where to oil it. and with what?? help me!!!! Thx

[DiSoRdeR]

50 bucks? You found a good deal, post some pics ;) Just put a few drops in the asa and you should be good to go.

[SonicGroove]

What the heck is the ASA??? AHH i feel like an idiot! Sorry dude.

i see something that looks like a valve that says OIL? its a small little hole..do i put some in there?? And thats it?????? What about the spring or the bolt??

[Chronobreak]

cool welcome to AO man and ps WE NEED PICS! :p

[Snorkie]

just put some regular gun oil in the asa, gas it up, and shoot it a couple of times and you'll be good to go :headbang:

[DiSoRdeR]

What the heck is the ASA??? Its the little thing that you screw your co2 or compressed air tank into ;)

And Welcome to AO :dance:

[Creative Mayhem]

Nice find..! Let me be the first to welcome you to AO.(EDIT: okay, maybe not the first.. damn you Disorder ;))

ASA is where the tank screws into. Put 4-6 drops of oil into there and then gas it up and fire the ioil throught the gun. Without the barrel, you wouldn't want any oily film on the inside of the barrel, no would you ;)

Good luck, and we're here to help you out.

Welcome to AO! :dance:

asa <- where you screw in your tank.

A good 3, 4 drops.. screw your tank back in. Fire a couple of times. Put barrel on.. hooper on.. mask on.. and get on the feild!! :dance: Oh but before you do that we need pics! :headbang:

[eddie885221]

wait... i suggest that if ur using nitro though dont put it in the asa cuz ive heard several times, and it makes sense too, that the nitro goes in so fast it makes heat and can explode, never happened to me but its possible, just be careful

[SonicGroove]

You guys are awesome! Hopefully i can attach these pics right!

[NJPaint]

Dude, that is a hot classic, I'm not kidding you, it brings back memories of my first mag (2nd paintball gun) :).

So, the coloring actually helps out. 3-4 drops of gun oil into the green thing ;) screw in your tank and shoot it a few times (may want to take off the barrel first and cover the front with a towel to catch the extra oil).

[SonicGroove]

do i put the oil in the hole?? or just kinda everywhere?

[NJPaint]

there should be a small hole in the back of the green thing. just turn the gun so the barrel faces the floor, drop a few drops into that hole and while the gun is still vertical screw your tank in. Are you using CO2 or HPA?

[SonicGroove]

co2 gonna run Nitro in a few months. Thats all i have to lube????? man thats easy

[DiSoRdeR]

do i put the oil in the hole?? or just kinda everywhere?

Yeah just put it in the little hole in the asa, if you have any other questions feel free to ask :D

EDIT: Took to long to reply and NJPaint beat me :cry:

[SonicGroove]

What kind of oil do i use?? Anyone recommend anything good?

[NJPaint]

Well, there are a few other things that you should do, but they aren't urgent like this is. But they are simple oiling things.

Ex.

Unscrew the field strip screw (silver thumb screw on the back of the gun)
Take off the valve
Flip valve over
pull out brass thingy (we call it an on/off)
Drop another 2 drops of oil in there
re-assemble
Fire a few shots


Just the fact that I can explain that in only a few lines tells you how simple it is :p

You have a lot of choices and in the end it really doesn't matter. Gold Cup, KC, Angel something or other. Basically any kind of paintball/gun oil. Any paintball store has it. I would send you some, but I don't have any with me right now.

[DiSoRdeR]

I would recommend Gold Cup, but as NJPaint said it doesnt really matter as long as it was ment for paintball.
