I like a dot of grease on sear notches, cocking lever parts, leaf
spring stirrups and other hard working spots like barrel pivot pins, rear of forend iron. small quantity of good quality oil on pivoting areas like hammer axles, sear pivot screws, etc. As Rocket said, don't overdo it. You don't want oil running into the stock wood. A good reason to store guns muzzle down, in your safe or cabinet.
