Metal Lubrication

There are many discussions concerning the durabiltiy of stainless and carbon steels. All seem to address the basic surface ability of the metal to resist forces (abrasion). Might I suggest that the lubricant be included in the discussion, relative to the operation of the LUGER pistol? I have found that "TetraGun" grease is an excellent lubtrcant for the Luger pistol. I do not have a Luger in SS, but my SS P239 has a stainless slide (right term?) riding against an aluminum frame (again, the right term?). The TetraGun grease performs an excellent job of lubricating the pistol. Also, when I used the grease as a lubricant in the bore, I was able to use lead bullets (on the P239)with no lead deposit in the bore. I'm sold on the TetraGun lubricants. The grease does a great job on all my pistols, and especially the Luger. I recommend that the experts try it, and let me know their opinions.
