I know that I'm one of several people who have done a "Im new to AKA" thread. I just bought an unmilled, and apparently otherwise unmolested 04 Viking.

I'm going to devour the forum here and on kiddie nation before I start hammering with questions. If anyone wants to give advice, it is appreciated. The most notabel thing I have learned so far, is a few drops of oil in the asa, shoot shoot shoot, wash, rinse, repeat.

There's a lot of good information and good people in the AKA section of pbnation, don't kid yourself. A viking is a slinging machine. If set properly, you'll need 2 drops of oil in the ASA from time to time, and a lot of paint. Pretty much. And sometimes a refill of air. Welcome here and have fun.

Besides a few drops of oil, and a fast loader full of paint, they occasionally want fresh batteries. If it ever starts acting up on you throwing a new battery in is the first thing to try.

You don't want it. You need to get rid of it and quickly. You still have my address?

In all seriousness, if it's clean, a few drops of oil, fresh batteries, paint and air.

I'm trying to find out the history of this one.

04? eyes... yucky!

Seriously though, I bought an 02 excal. Pulled apart the sidewinder and noticed that it still had the original everything inside. Cleaned it up, two drops of oil and threw down a case of paint over two weekends. it was +/- 5 at the chrony! insanely awesome tools for the job. I'll probably never part with it.

When she arrives, I'll post them up. It's on the way from Canadialand, so it could take a few days.
