I most often carry a S&W 360PD five shot revolver. My ammo was Hornady critical defense in a brass case. After a year of walks with the doggo, I noticed a little rust on the ejector rod knurling (one of the few steel parts). I unloaded and did a thorough cleaning and lube (hoppes 9 solvent, lithium grease, Kroil, and carnauba wax). As I went to reload I noticed discoloration on the rim of several rounds. I clean off the rims (brasso) and went down to my LGS and picked up a box of Hornady critical duty with the nickel plating. The difference in aim point and recoil is minimal, but cost difference is significant. Just my two cents.

I'd say grease the guns you're not using regularly and are sitting in the locker, but carry guns that are exposed to elements should be taken apart and oiled once per week and thoroughly cleaned after each goodification.

I clean and oil my guns, then I put a thick layer of grease on all the points where the slide and frame make any contact. Rack the slide a few times and wipe off any grease that comes out. My guns run like butter.
