You will need a few supplies before you start oiling your bolt carrier group. You will need:
- A quality gun oil (I prefer Mobil 1 Synthetic Gun Oil)
- A clean rag
- A paper towel
- Q-tips (optional)
First, make sure that your bolt carrier group is completely dry. If there is any oil or residue on the surface, clean it off with a rag and paper towel. Next, apply a small amount of gun oil to the rag and wipe down the entire surface of the bolt carrier group. You don’t need to use a lot of gun oil, just enough to coat the surface. Once you have coated the bolt carrier group with gun oil, use the Q-tips to get into any hard-to-reach areas.
Repeat this process every time you clean your weapon. You should also oil your bolt carrier group after extended periods of storage.
