Hey all,
I got my Colt AR Lightweight Sporter out and have decided to start shooting it. No sense having a fun gun like that and letting it sit in the safe without ever firing a shot.
It is a NIB and has never been shot or oiled for that matter. I need to know where and how to properly lube her and how far to break it down. I pushed the pin out and dropped the upper and then I pulled the action out via the charging handle. That's about as far as I am comfortable in breaking it down. I haven't went any further that that. I did check out the parts and there wasn't any oil I could see on the internal parts. There isn't any rust or any other type of build-up, it's just dry.
So can someone point me in the direction of a lube diagram or give me instructions on where to lube and the proper method for lubing the AR-15? The oils I have are Browning Midas Oil, Breakfree CLP, TW-25B, Rem Oil and a syringe of Wilson Combat Ultima Lube White Grease. I don't us all of these, they are just what I have collected over the years. If I should be using something else like Mobil 1 5W30 let me know and I'll get it. I want to start having some AR fun....
Thanks for the help and assistance, I appreciate your time.
