Default EZ 380 lube points

I noticed in the instruction manual it shows lube 5 points for the frame but nothing for the slide.

I lube my .380EZ on the 5 points and the long inside rails on each side of the slide. I also lube the entire outside of the barrel with a Q-tip with Mobile 1 0-30w synthetic oil. Works Very well.

I lubricate all my MP's with a light gun grease on the frame rails (where they meet the slide rail groves!) makes it so much smoother to rack.

Why would you need to lube the slide, when four of the specified lube points are the rails the slide moves on? There is really no need to lube both the rails and the slide.
