i dont know if you should use WD40.... it could damage something. i know on airsoft guns you're only supposed to use silicone.
oils can damage rubber, and some plastics. you dont want to ruin o-rings etc. mark do you know if WD40 is detrimental to these guns and their components?]]> Modelgun Cleaning Guides Thu, 07 Aug 2008 11:11:57 GMT http://mp40modelguns.forumotion.net/modelgun-cleaning-guides-f11/wd40-or-silicone-oil-t116.htm#269 http://mp40modelguns.forumotion.net/modelgun-cleaning-guides-f11/wd40-or-silicone-oil-t116.htm http://mp40modelguns.forumotion.net/modelgun-cleaning-guides-f11/cleaning-cartridges-t407.htm Cerwyn Post by Gavin

I have not encountered this problem until the other day when I wanted to give a couple of my guns a jolly good thrashing, and decided that to make things easy, I would use the same cartridges for all of them, rather than use different types for each.

When a black powder weapon is torn down, some shooters soak virtually everything metal and whatever isn't considered stock or handgrip furniture. Is that appropriate with modelguns, or is it a matter of excess?
As pervasive as the phosphorous fumes can be, it seems like it might be a good idea.]]> Modelgun Cleaning Guides Thu, 07 Aug 2008 10:35:01 GMT http://mp40modelguns.forumotion.net/modelgun-cleaning-guides-f11/cleaning-components-after-firing-t107.htm#223 http://mp40modelguns.forumotion.net/modelgun-cleaning-guides-f11/cleaning-components-after-firing-t107.htm http://mp40modelguns.forumotion.net/modelgun-cleaning-guides-f11/vinegar-baking-soda-hot-water-t108.htm Cerwyn Post by Mark Cerwyn, 1.
