Grip cleaning...

Bill, so are you saying that I shouldn't use something like Clenzoil on the Luger? It is a 1914 DWM (all matched, 99% blue, ex straw, bought from Ralph to collect not shoot) that virtually has no lube or oil in it or on it. In fact, when you move the safety, it feels like metal on metal as there is no lubrication at all. I understand what is being said about the grips, and I have decided based on the advise in these posts, to just leave them alone. But, I just want to make sure I am understanding what you said, as your advise is to not put anything on it, or use anything but a dry soft brush, correct? This is my first Luger, and I just want to do the right thing. Any additional thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bart
