So is that on top of squirting lube into AR periodically to keep the gun running?

Can’t leave a comment there? Bah.
What about the carrier underside where it resets the hammer during cycling? And surely the pins making up the safety and on which the trigger/hammer assemblies rotate deserve a bit of friction reduction to avoid the steel from eating away the aluminum receiver?
I’ve found that Grant Cunningham’s post on lubrication covers what needs covering.

Proper Mosin Nagant lubrication:
If the bolt stops working, piss on it until the mud and sand clears enough for the bolt to work.
Or dig that factory lube bottle out from under that apartment in Budapest that is sitting over it right now.

aczarnowski: I use anti-rotate pins on mine. No wear on the aluminum that way. Look at the AR in the cheaper than dirt ad to the left for an example of a set.
