 Gary,

 Sounds like it's time for a good, quick Lube!

 If your squeak is coming from the breech pivot area get some oil in there fast!  The better Oils like Beeman and RWS are specifically made for airguns, but in an emergency, even Crosman or Daisy Air Gun Oil would lubricate the Pivot enough to protect it and untill you could pick up some really good lubricants. A drop or two of the Daisy/Crosman oils on the cocking arm joint will be OK too.

 Many Local Sporting Goods and Gun shops carry the RWS Lubes. Internet airgun dealers carry various brands of lubes, and are only a keystroke away! Many have good advice on how-to lube also!

 Good luck,

 ZVP

Squeaky

My BSA was doing something simular,so when i stripped it down i found the piston head was wobbly,replaced it with a tight fitting ally one and it cured it.The sound was being made by the old steel head catching the inside of the chamber.
