Continuing the Mosin Nagant Maintenance series in this video We'll be covering proper Lubrication
This rifle has a lot of moving parts In the bolt assembly and I like to Use oil on all
of them A light oil like Breakfree or Rem Oil works
great when rubbed on All of the parts including the firing Pin and spring
Then I also like to put a small dab Of grease on the camming area at The rear of the bolt
to reduce the Amount of effort it takes to lift The bolt
If the action is out of the stock I'll Also use Breakfree to lubricate The trigger mechanism
Otherwise I'll put a drop or two Through the sear port and call it Good
As long as you have even the Smallest amount of oil in the Trigger area things generally
Function flawlessly on these guns So I don't worry about it too much
The same holds true for the Magazine spring and follower
I'll add a bit of lube to the hinged Joints and the areas where the Springs rub against
metal if I think About it but it isn't absolutely Necessary for reliable function
With the rifle now properly Lubricated in our final video we'll Be covering reassembly
