oh and drop of light weight silicone oil for mags, hopup chamber and barrel. only a few drops in total for all those parts mentioned, no point in over lubing which can be just as bad as not enough lube. eg too much lube on hopup, bb will be flying all over the freaking place until lube comes off and the the hopup setting will be more stable, consistent.
Perfect! this answered so many of my questions, that i've been sooooooo confused about! I've been told that I shouldn't have any kind of lube whatsoever in the barrel and the hopup.

Probably one final question for the day. Where would I find all these kinds of lubes? I know Jugglez has the sili oil, that's about it.

Again, thanks for all your help!
