Proper maintenance of 1900 luger

I have a 1900 luger and I have been curious what is the best way to store your luger away. Meaning oiled up, dry or whatever. Mine already has some pitting and Im worried about any further corrosion of the gun will make the american eagle no longer readable.

I have been covering the entire gun with Hoppe's No. 9 lubricating oil when I store it away in its case.

Am I doing the right thing to help prevent further corrosion to the gun or is there a better way to do it. I added some pictures of what I got going on now.
