You can see an historical example in this video:

Type 92 Japanese Machine gun, oiler function minute 14

Unless you happen to see a historical example at the range, I very much doubt you will ever see a weapon system using greased or oiled cases. Chamber flutes sent them all to the ash heap of history.



HK 91 chamber



P7 9mm Pistol chamber flutes



It has been so long that the American shooting community has forgotten about weapon systems that used grease or had oilers. Chamber flutes break the friction between case and chamber, and there are companies using chamber flutes to improve the ejection of AR15 rifles.

XTRAN Technology:






They are very careful not to call what they are doing "case lubrication" because of all the hysteria they will hear from Hatcherites and Ackleyites, but if you read their literature, that is what they are doing.
