Get that WD40 thoroughly cleaned out with the lacquer thinner and hose the internal parts and the frame down with Ballistol and let them drip dry. It will stay on but will remain as a very very light grease layer that will last for years and never run off. The WD40 will harden to a varnish like goo that glues everything up. Nasty stuff. Good for some things but has no place in any gun in my book.I use wheel bearing grease on the hook/hinge pin and on the surface of the rear lug where the bolt slides to lock it up. Works very well.
