I am of the group that uses a grease to the hard friction areas(toggle train to receiver, etc.) and a good oil to the lighter friction areas. I run my Lugers well lubricated.
I use TW25b for the frame/toggle areas(grease), and Outers or other good gun oils for the areas needing a lighter lubrication.
I have been using Hoppe's #9 for more years than I can remember. I have tried others, but never felt that they were any better than Hoppe's, and they lacked the fragrance!!
I used to love the smell of a paper shotgun shell that had just been fired. I believe that they were Monarch Brand.....but maybe not.
