    Air Arms Alfa Project Maintenance?

    Can anyone please tell me what maintenance is required for my pistol? The owners handbook is no help at all for this. What should I lubricate with oil and what must not get oiled at all etc? Is silicon oil best? etc etc. Thanks in advance, Paul.

    I too would be interested on any info' on this as I have just bought a nice used one (yet to test it) which will need servicing at some point.
    I have seen "O" ring kits for sale on the auction site so they must be user serviceable.

    PCP or CO2 version?
    PCP version, I wouldnt lubricate anything.
    CO2: apply little oil on each new bulb. Replace piercercap O-ring when it fails

    i have the pcp version and maintenance wise ive done nothing to it except tighted the rear sight block as was loose when brought from shop. ive also adjusted the power up but thats it. not alot of maintenance needed at least not in my experience with it or any other pcp pistol or rifle. its a great pistol and deadly accurate.
    This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
    My rifle is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My rifle, without me, is useless. Without my rifle, I am useless.
