Proper lube for Mauser FP?
Guys,

What is the proper way to lubricate a Mauser firing pin and spring when reassembling the bolt?

Oil? Grease? What kind would you suggest?

Thanks!

I am not a Mauser expert, but I would use light coat of Break Free.

But then I use Break Free for most everything. Big Grin

I always put a little high perfomance grease plastilube/ lubriplate or like that on the cocking cam and the ramp on the bolt eases bolt opening and stops wear on the bolt body
