The local paintball store around here sells the 1 oz. bottles of gun
oil for $6.00 a pop. I'd rather buy 36 cans of soda for that much, at least I can drink that. My question is this. I have a 4 oz. can of Elmer's Slide-All Dry Spray Lubricant lying around and was thinking that might work. Thoughts/suggestions about my solution or other solutions you guys have come up with. |

A bottle has probably 200 drops in it. A gun needs about 2 drops per 8000 shots. That will last anyone a lifetime. Even people like me that play every weekend. If you need a lot of oil then maybe you need to have some else oil your gun for you. |
