Lubricating the stock bolt

[darklordhendrix]

I have had my fly since december and it has been totally awsome. I just put the evolve kit on it and it's even better. For a while now, I've noticed the usual wear on the bolt, but the anodizing is beginning to come off inside the breech. I kno that this is normal, but I have heard mixed opinions about lubricating delrin. As far as I know, only bob long bolts swell if lubricated because they aren't true delrin. Does anyone know if lubricating the angel bolt will make it swell?

DON'T LUBRICATE IT! I don't know about true v. not true derlin bolts, but I do know that the angel bolt will swell if lubricated...In fact when oiling the gun, you should remove the bolt to avoid getting n e oil on it....than wipe the breech of excess oil.

STOP!!! Don't lube the bolt! Ever!!!
