No, it needs to be oiled once in a while (check the manuals, they suggest silicon oil spray every once in a while). Once you get the oil in there, yo uhave to run a mag or two through the gun to get the bulk of the oil off the rubber to have the hop up work properly. That is all standard procedure. If you don't ever lube that area, and allow the hop up rubber to get tacky, then BBs will refuse to get pressed through the breech part of the rubber and the above (plugging) is exactly what happens. I've fixed dozens of guns (including on the field) that plugged up, by putting a couple drops of oil in, and every single one of them ran the rest of the day without a burp.
