I finished my first tune on my trail np! i put in a new seal, deburred it ,cleaned it and moly lubed it. I lubed the gun like ive been told (around the seals edge one inch behind it and on the back of the piston one inch forward.) I shot it with no problems but i hear a squeaking noise coming from the seal (im guessing) as i cock it does that mean anything? i lubed it how i was told to do. Or is that a sign of good sealing?

Did you put a tiny bit of moly on the seal itself? If you only put it on the ram, your seal might be dry. Some would likely migrate eventually, but a very small amount is needed to create the desired amount of controlled dieseling which will keep things running up to specs.

A touch of Maccari clear lube go's around the seal and a touch of the Gray molly on the piston just behind it on the piston. Ed

From CDT's B-19 tune up guide,,,
"After cocking and firing it a few times, if the seal is still squeaking, remove the stock and drop 1 drop (that’s one drop) of Gene Sundays Mystery Oil on each side of the piston at the long slot closest to the front of the piston and stand it on the barrel end for a few minutes so that it can weep its way down to the sealing surface area. Again, do not over lube. I dabbed a tooth pick into the lube and applied one drop on each side. A few more shots and the seal squeal will be gone. If you didn’t over lube it, it won’t bark at you either the first few times that you shoot it."
