    Also, they don't take kindly to limp wristing, I had a cousin fire mine once, and it malfunctioned on every shot. When properly instructed, the malfunctions disappeared.

    A very very old Mauser or DWM pamphlet/brochure I saw once, instructed the user to lightly lube their P-08 with Petroleum jelly, so that's what I always used.

    It just difficult to both buy a big tub of Vaseline and explain its purpose when someone spots it though Thankfully, the Vaseline lasts a long time.

    Ok, so it seems the date for the challenge will be 22 June 2019. We are joining the CDPC club shoot at the Eufees range.
