    Try lubing up the seals on your bolt and Co2 piercing pin and seal. Crosman pellgun oil or 30w no detergent motor oil can help rejuvinate old dry seals. Some have said that letting the oil soak in for a day or two have brought old co2 airguns back into shooting shape.

    I use a drop or two on the tip of every 12 gram co2 cartridge and it should work it's way through the airgun and should be all the lubing a co2 airgun needs.
