Missing several Gits oilers, I fabricated several out of some rifle shells, 30-06 and 44 mag I think it was.
The 30-06 shell was cut off at a 45 degree angle and carefully silver soldered back together to form
a right angled oiler. The cover for the oiler is a 44 Magnum shell swaged out a bit for a good fit. Maybe
not quite as nice as the Gits but functional and with no expense. I suppose some would say it is a
red neck type repair but I kinda like it. :)

The age old saying that "necessity is the mother of invention" holds true yet once again!
