Just got my KWA M4A1 RIS (I believe it is the same as the standard M4a1 with the exception of the added RIS rails.)

When should I "oil" it for the first time, and do I oil the magazine to and where

When should I clean the barrel for the first time.

Also, When I eject the magazine, About 3 BBs fall out of the gun. Is this normal??? We are talking about the standard hi-cap magazine that comes with the gun.

Other then that, everything is good so far

Any other additional hints or tips are appreciated

First, you lube the magazine, it comes pretty lubed, so you won't need to worry about that for a while.

Second, clean the barrel after every day of use with the stock barrel. When you upgrade the barrel, you will probably need to lube it more often.

And third, that is normal, all hi-cap mags do that.

That's about it, good luck

1st: "lube" it every once in a while to keep everything looking good

2nd: right when you get it

3rd: yeah, every gun does that, hicap or not
