Re: Rail Oil question....

Oil attracts dirt and dust and can get into the trigger assembly. Wax can get in the trigger assembly and gum it up. I used white gas (Coleman fuel) to clean my Timney triggers and only lubed them with lighter fluid. Timney recommends this. Check it for yourself. Some manufacturers recommend a dry s...

Life is too short to buy a Hawke. Buy a Zeiss (or Leupold) and be done with it.
