Upkeep for an 05 Speed

Is it enough to just clean the bolt and firing chamber (not sure the actual name of that part, but the part that the bolt moves back and forth in), or should I be running grease through the ASA every so often? I just want to know what should be done after I play.

Thanks in advance :)

No, sadly it is not enough to just clean the bolt and breach of the gun (firing chamber).

At least once every ten or so cases, you should entirely disassemble and throughly clean the inside of your gun. the instructions found in the manual are usually enough to get most people through the process, but sometimes there are issues not covered there, which is why this forum is here =)

It is very important that you do take the time to do this, as you would not BELIEVE some of the junk that finds it's way into your air passages. The strangest thing i have ever found in an angel was a (very) small scorpion that had crawled it's way into the lower part of an A4'S LPR while the owner was camping out near Yuma. It had apparently smelled the banana scented grease he was using, and thought it was food.

haha, funny story. Thanks for the response. I'll have to disassemble it sometime this week for a cleaning. Just have to find some time . . .

Thanks again for the help, I appreciate it.

And PS: Are there any (speedball) fields in the Phoenix area. I have family out there and am probably going to visit soon this summer.

Yes, there is one good speedball field out here called 23BPS. I know most of the staff there, and there is not one bad apple in the whole lot. I'm usually there every Saturday from 8am-1pm and will most likely either be reffing recball games or playing with my buddy. the fields webpage is here (http://www.23bps.com/html/frames.htm)

However, there are a few REALLY BAD fields in the area, namely "splatter ranch" (outdoor recball) and Xtreme pursuit (indoor "speedball", and i use the term loosely) AVOID THESE FIELDS AT ALL COST. They are both owned by the same guy, named Bill, who is a total DICK. be careful about spilling paint in the ready area, or he'll make you pick up every single ball.

thanks. I'll see about hitting 23BPS up when I go there this summer. Just curious about where I should go to play a couple good games of paintball :)
