I had no idea that it was Hoppes #9 that was packed with new Tippmanns, I have used Hoppes #9 for year in all my firearms. I know we are talking firearms and paintball markers here, but if it is good enough for my firearms,it has to be good in my paintball gun. Plus Tippmann started out making firearms if I'm not mistaken.

yes they did, I wish i could find one of them in someones basement, they are worth a ton of money these days. For all that don't know, they made replicas of WW2 heavy machine guns in .22 caliber.

Hoppes #9 is damned good stuff - I use it exclusively in my paintball guns.

just remember, for you noobs - over lubing is almost as bad not lubing at all.

just a hint of oil sheen on your metal parts is what you need.

too much attracts dust/dirt and grit and can increase wear.

a drop or two in the ASA and a half dozen dry fires will lube the valve.

you'll also want to spread a drop on your bottle O rings, and your remote female fitting.
