So I've been reading on the APP website and they recommend NOT using lube as their APP produces its own lube. Now is it enough lube to keep the cylinder turning or just enough to keep the barrel from fouling. They make some seemingly tall claims on their site that make us look like fools for...

My walker cycles just fine for the first shot or two then the arbor fouls up some and it gets a little hard to cock and I have to help the cylinder turn because it binds up a bit. Is this normal or is there something I can do to fix it? I've only shot maybe 40 rounds through it. Thanks
