Like so many other question askers here, you provide almost no information specific to your situation so its nearly impossible for people to provide you with meaningful thoughts and input.
So the only answer I can provide is yes, no and maybe.
a little lubrication works wonders,,, experience is such a good teacher
ya ever try and cut up an old tire with a razor knife? a little WD40 makes it go a LOT smoother,,, as rubber likes to grab hold of metal remember when you inflated a football/basketball, ya licked the needle to get to go in easier
and a little silicone oil on your magazine's o-ring,,, what about your breech or probe o-rings, ya cut them off also,, ,
