PERIODIC OlLlNG — Ordinary good judgment
will indicate that the metal parts of the gun
should receive a light film of oil after the gun
has been exposed to weather or handling.
Occasionally, a small drop of oil may be placed
on each receiver track in which the barrel
extension guides and breechblock run during
operation (See Figure 21). This will help to
relieve friction and ensure smooth operation.
Also, lightly lubricate the breechblock, rotary
bolt and spring guides. DO NOT POUR LARGE
QUANTITIES OF OIL INTO THE ACTION. A
large excess of oil will run back into the wood of
the stock and cause softening of the wood, with
consequential loosening of the stock.
