    3 in 1 with PTFE or Abbey ?

    Just need something to keep my HW40 and FAS604 oiled. I have standard Abbey airgun oil, and the 3 in 1 with PTFE. Which would be OK to use on the piston to keep the seals from drying out ?
    Thanks, Mike.

    Both are SSP pistols, therefore I'd never use a mineral based oil.

    I'd much rather order a tube of Pellgunoil, and use nothing until the Pelgunoil arrived (from JSR).

    That's what I use on SSPs, pumpers, and CO2 guns. It seems to work.

    I would stay away from PTFE if I were you. Just usea small amount of Ballistol if and when required.

    I have just been given a can of "Legia" spray made by browning. Has anybody tried it?
    Thanks.
