- A RWS catalog should be helpful in locating a suitable lubricant
- for airgun. Although I don't remember the seal needing any.
- In fact, if I remember it right, one is not suppose to oil the
- seal.
- An airgun needs very little lubricant in normal usage, just one
- or two drops of oil on the main spring should be sufficient.
-
- By the way, don't use any penetrating oil ( like CLP ) on a
- airgun, if they get to the seal, you will have to replace the
- seal.
-
- hope this helps.
- Merry Christmas everyone!!
