hi
@dpauld !
start with listing down the easily worn-down parts when not in use, e.g. Springers 10years back would have leather washers which are now synthetic.
Without Lubrication, They (leather washers) turn too hard to bring back to their original flexibility, so get new or find synthetic equivalents.
stock up some CLP if You've already checked and found rust on the moving parts.
Be careful of the trigger assy. as if there's rust, You'll need to work them up gently.
Barrel snake would also help, as the grooves catch rust if the gun is not in use and is without regular cleaning,
Breach seal may also have turned too hard and if not replaced, might not give good seal.
The Main spring is usually lubed with moly grease which may have dried out, CLP dip and wipe would ease it out.
Spring behind trigger might have been eaten by rust, and got weaker to break on further usage, check and get replacement.
That's pretty much You'd look for.
Nice to hear on Springers...
There's something about simple machines that permanently reserves a corner in Your heart, esp. when You've redone them after using...
