First Clean of factory new gun questions

I lube my spring because I don't know what kind of metal its made out of and dont want it rusting.

I do the exact same thing. Better to be safe than sorry.

do you put a drop on the spring and let it sit vertical to run down the whole thing? seems like it would be hard to cover an odd surface area like that unless you put drops every couple coils.

Just put a few drops on a cloth or patch and rub it on.
