Do I need to lubricate a new BCG and if so what kind of lube should I use. Do I just lube the whole thing?
Thanks and sorry if that is a dumb question. |

I would have to disagree Forrest.
The weapon should be lubed the same amount regardless of the anticipated number of rounds one expects to fire. Wear is wear, regardless if you fire 20 rds or 200 rds. The wear is identical. And the weapon is lubed not to simply prevent wear. You're also lubing for corrosion prevention. So lube IAW the -10 Operators manual, or my lube chart tacked on page one of this forum, and you can't go wrong. |
