Hello All,
Just another installment from the guy who CA'd his hand to another part of his body. soldered near his open paint thinner, added smoker oil while looking in the tube.
Today's tough lesson: Airsoft and Gun Oil. So I'm cleaning my rifle which is a gun, and I'm looking at my TIGER A23 which has an Airsoft gun. Common Word-gun. So the little man in my mind thinks. Hey if oil is good for the rifle it must be good for my tank's gun.
So within a second my Tiger gets a nice squirt down the muzzle of Hoppes 1903-2003 lubricating oil. Now those little BBs should Fly!
Well they did indeed do better! For the first five shots that is. Then it was harder for them to come out. On shot 9 the bb came out and splattered against the wall. On shot 12 all BB shots were hang fires. So I had to take the gun apart and found that yep-you guessed it. The gun oil melted the BBs I had a molten mass of angry orangish yellow and white looking back at me.
So I got al that cleaned out. and dryed out. Then doing what you guys told me to do inthe first place I got some silicone spray. Now once again all is good. But I still think the Tank CO looks at me funny.
