it's okay for a while. TM guns come well lubricated out of the box.

Gears use grease, not oil. If it's non upgraded, your gearbox is good for 10s of thousands of rounds without requiring a cleaning/re-lube unless something grinds/strips.

barrels, I clean after every game. It's good to get a layer of silicone in there as the brass can oxidize and get a rough surface if not maintained.

Typically 10 or 20 weight is good enough for your needs.

There is stock TM grease that you can buy for the gears and the cylinder. G&P also has a grease and oil set. Look for them on WGC or Redwolf.
