Maintenance of a CO2 pistol?

[Kpop89]

Hi! First off i want to say that i'm completely green when it comes to airsoft. So now to the question! I just bought a KWC PT92 CO2 pistol and i have some questions regarding the maintenance. Is it enough to use a lubrication cartridge around every 10th normal cartridge or do i have to pick it apart and use silicone spray and grease now and then?

Thanks in advance!

Don't keep the gun gased between games and lube the seals regularly and you should be fine.

Is the lubrication cartridges enough for this?

A Co2 pistol is a bit more annoying to maintain than a green gas one.

As BigStew said, you should remove the gas cartridge when not used. (This is a bit of a pain if not empty)

Yes as you said, use a lubrication cartridge every 10 or so.  (Adding oil for each replacement as above is also very good)

Remember: Don't oil in the hop or barrel. They must stay dry.
