If you have a screw in tank, it is chunk of metal that your tank screws into.

If you have a tank that simply bolts on (most adjustable HPA tanks) you will need to disconnect your line (stainless steel, macroline, etc) from the gun and put the oil directly in the line there. A quick disconnect is very helpful for this.

so to oil my rt i just put 6 drops of autolube into my screw in asa?

Yes. The ASA is what you screw the tank/bottle into. Look inside of it and you will see a hole.

Remove the barrel, put in a few drops of oil into the ASA, screw on you bottle and fire off about 30-40 shots to blow the oil all throughout the gun. You don't want the barrel on, or it will be coated in oil...bad.

If you have an adjustable HPA tank, then simply pull the QD hose end off the guns valve inlet and drip in some oil there. Barrel off and fire those shots. Be sure to point the gun away from anything you don't want oil on!

Ignore the "o-OIL-o" holes on the bottom of the valve assembly, they don't do anything.

How old is this? Lol Army are you supposed to lightly oil the o-rings too? I always want to be doing it right that's all. And another thing whats the dirty back stuff I see when I take off my regulator nut? I thought it was supposed to be axle grease?

You want to get it as close to the valve as possible. If you have a quick disconnect, put it in their instead of the ASA. Just put in a few drops, take out the barrel (don't want oil in the barrel), and dryfire 30-40 times to spread teh oil through the valve.

Do you know what's weird? How all that grime get's in your valve assembly. Lol it justs pops in there for no reason.

oiling

There are two sections on the valve body I think it is that they say to oil whenever you field strip and clean. Also the o-rings are important to oil. I think they said the most important one is the on off one in the front because it takes the most wear and tear. And yeah too much oil will get your internals dirty.
