The bolt carrier group (BCG) is one of the most important components in your AR-15 rifle. It’s what makes your rifle fire, and it needs to be properly lubricated for it to function properly. Oiling your BCG is a simple process, but you must do it correctly.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to oil your bolt carrier group:
- First, make sure that your gun is unloaded and the magazine is removed.
- Next, open the action and visually inspect the BCG to make sure there isn’t any dirt or debris inside.
- Once you’ve inspected the BCG, apply a few drops of oil to all of the moving parts.
- Finally, close the action and cycle the charging handle a few times to distribute the oil evenly.
It’s important to note that you should only use lightweight oil on your BCG. Heavy oils can cause problems with reliability, so it’s best to avoid them.
