I need to clean the chambers every time I test it. I also put a little moly grease on the ends of the sears where they rub on the cocking rings.

Thanks for that info. Cleaning the chambers does not sound like a lot of fun. Do you have to break the gun down or just quick Q-tip swab?
Lube anywhere else on the gun?

Anyone with any other thoughts on this. General lube anywhere?

I use a regular 22 rimfire rod with the brass brush from the front while the barrels are on TDC. Then push an oiled up patch through each. This only take a few minutes to do all of the barrels like this. You should wipe down your bolts with a silicone rag and put a dab of grease on the bushings and bearings. When you assemble your crank, put a little grease on the shaft and gears also.

A bump to the top to get a few more ideas. Bruski, Thanks for your thoughts.

If you need lube advise on 1919a4\'s or MG42\'s (semi auto only) I can make a few offers on those. Cleaning also.
