The biggest mistake anyone can make is to not lube the moving parts of a firearm and expect it to run reliably. Especially in shooting disciplines where rapid fire is the norm. Some of the new folks would show up with grandpas old Colt Woodsman that was dryer than a pop gun fart when it came to lube. After fumbling through their first stage with multiple malfunctions, I’d offer them some lube. Some took it with their problems going away, some refused saying their Gramps said it ran the best dry. They continued the match with malfunctions and rarely came back. Seen the same with newbs in some AR rifle competitions. Same results running them dry.</blockquote>
