A modern spring-piston air rifle or air pistol will deliver its maximum shooting potential and remain trouble-free for an unusually long period of time if properly lubricated and cleaned. Ignoring this will inevitable lead to wear, power and accuracy loss, and ultimate breakdown. Improper lubrication can cause damage to the gun and possible injury to the shooter and bystanders. Understanding the principles will both increase shooting enjoyment and assist functioning. Here are the BASIC POINTS:
The COMPRESSION CHAMBER is that portion of the receiver where actual air compression takes place when the piston moves forward in shooting. The piston seal must remain moist with lubrication to reduce friction, create the best air seal and prevent seal deterioration. Since the air is heated to as high as 2,000 degrees (F) for a fraction of a second upon firing, only high flash point lubricants must be used. This eliminates almost all petroleum based lubes and synthetics used in firearms and pneumatic airguns. They will cause dieseling (detonation) that can possible damage the gun and injure the shooter. Only specialized synthetic and organic oils carefully selected for high flash point, proper lubicity and lack of impurities should used. Only Beeman Chamber Oil 9250, Beeman Airlube 9300 or Beeman Ultra Lube 9290 (the only recommended lube for recoilless airguns) should be used in the compression chamber.
Apply this oil very sparingly. One or two drops every 5,000 to 6,000 rounds, or each 8-12 months, should be plenty. It is best to wait until you can hear the piston seal "squeak" during cocking before you apply chamber oil. It is easy to overlube. (To apply chamber oil to tap loading guns, open the tap, put in the oil, rotate the tap to the closed position, and point the muzzle up, while cocking, to allow the oil to flow into the compression chamber.)
Recoilless spring-piston airguns such as FWB 300S and 65 require very little lubrication, and one or two drops of Beeman Ultra Lube is sufficient. Do not over lube. Use all lubes sparingly and as directed.
