One thing I should tell you is that Stainless against Stainless galls and you may see a lot of ware on the Toggle pin and where the parts rub against each other. I add a small amount of Lubraplate a "Molybdenum grease" to all of these arias after cleaning also on my Springfield SS 1911 even though the Springfield is made of a much berrer grade of SS.

A bit off-topic, but on all my SS handguns, I use LSA as a lubricant. It's what the military uses on the M-16's (and others) where you have metals prone to galling. You can find it at any gunshow, in various containers. Green bottles, white bottles, it's a white-ish semi-solid/semi-grease and only a thin film is required.
