From a fellow beretta man...Heres the prefered method for the 92... clean the gun..remove all socleaning solvents(wipe dry) Points to place a drop of oil--Locking block, a drop on each of the "ears", and a drop on the contact points where it meets the barrel....slide rails(these should have a film on them, i use a patch with a few drops of oil on it and wipe them down. A drop on the hammer pin contact point. also every once in a while i put a drop on the inside of the mag release button. In addition I like to leave a light bit of oil on all of the parts, but not too much, because it will collect dust. the 92 is very reliable, I have put 2.5K through mine without a single hicup. Also check out http://www.berettaforum.net/vb all the beretta info you could ever ask for. hope to see you there

Use grease on the slide rails and locking block, oil everywhere else. Grease will not evaporate or run off during use. Just use a thin film, and wipe off any excess to keep it from attracting too much dust.
A good way to tell if a part needs lubrication is to look for wear or shiny spots on mating surfaces. If it's shiny, lube it.
Tetra Grease or Permatex Anti-Seize Lubricant are the ones I usually use, and have had no trouble with gumming up or dust for 2,000 rounds now.

the only place I lube mine while shooting is along the frame rails - the groove where the frame and slide come together, and only very lightly....excess oil will burn off from the powder ignition and gum things up.
I also store dry - the way we did in the Army. Clean thoroughly and store dry, apply oil before shooting but not for storage because the oil attracts dust, which turns oil into a gummy mess.

Oil the slide rail I would also put a drop or two by the hammer. When your done shooting clean and store dry or if you have a good gun case very little oil.

I agree with grenadier, use something other than just oil, there's alot better stuff out there.
