What should I be greasing in my A-5 for maintenance? I always put a couple of drops of oil in ASA but I am not sure what the difference is or where I put the grease.

don't need to grease anything. If you wanted to lube the sucker with Dow 33, Sleek, or any of the other products on the market, it'd pretty much be a waste of money due to the fact that the A-5 has pretty loose tolerances isn't filled with circuitry that would potentially short if oil and contaminants leaked in. Stick with some KC, Gold Cup, or Hoppes #9 with the asa and you're good.

Use oil in internals.
Use grease on regulators. |
