Default Cleaning & Lubrication

Have a question for the group here; Is Break Free CLP enough of a lubricant for my 442 (trigger pivot, cylinder, rebound slide, etc) or do I need to add additional lubricant to the internal parts?

Currently I have been flushing the inside parts out with CLP then a little compressed air, then adding a little oil to the internal parts I can get to..

I do dry fire the heck out of this little devil (using snap caps)..

Any & all suggestions welcome..

I prefer a 'dry lube' for the internals. But Breakfree will work just fine. (Breakfree is all we ever used, before I retired from the military)

All I've ever used is CLP. You could do more, but I don't know if it's necessary.
