I've searched the forum but didn't come up with much info on the specific oiling procedures for Thumblers (AR-1 and AR-2 type). Those of you out there that use these types any advice for a beginner? Specifically what and where do you oil? What kinds of oil do you use? Any help or suggestions welcomed. TIA.
