IMHO there is NO ONE LUBRICANT good for ALL firearms as they all require different lubes. Caliber, design, weather, field conditions, etc all play a role in what lubricant you use.
Understood; I am in South Louisiana and have a lot of semiauto pistols. Mostly 9mm DA/SA, all metal framed, probably a 50/50 mix of steel and aluminum frames. I don't anticipate freezing, certainly not subzero conditions. I keep the majority of these guns indoors at all times.

I have a grease I'm satisfied with (the Mobil 1 I mentioned). i'm actually very satisfied with the Ballistol I use, but I was able to get a gallon of this oil for $30.

Regarding the Ballistol MSDS, it looks like it just lists mineral oil and propellants.

Here's what the site says...
