Re: silicone oil and grease in bangalore....
They have competitors so negative feedback is not surprising for me.
I often buy from them and many of my friends here buy from them.
I think you can import. Imported product is always good. That why we are importing from India to US and you can import from US to India.

Re: silicone oil and grease in bangalore....
yes did that with an old bsa mercury. not singer oil though, but ball bearing grease. I striped it and and applied it very liberally all over the spring, piston, 0 ring and later over a teflon washeri made! believe me the gun shot at a higher velocity and was very accurate out to 35 yards!! still use it. no wear and tear too.
just too scared to try that on the diana magnum 350....hence all the queries.
ever tried any of the This thread has been edited for violation of Indian For Guns policy as stated in the Announcements forum? they are marketing a lubricant kit.
yes Briha, all this "business" makes me question better technology, not mention loss of sleep trying to find the required accessories here in India.
