I spoke to two guys at my local gun shop (old timers with lots of experience, one is an firearms instructor), they did not recommend using "grease" on firearms here in Arizona because "it dries out due to our heat".

I'd think it would depend upon what grease you used. There are high temperature greases designed to operate at very high temperatures without breaking down.
Yes.... I agree. The grease I've experimented with is synthetic Slick 50 wheel bearing grease with DuPont Teflon.
If it's good enough for wheel bearings, it should be plenty good enough for my slide rails on my pistols.
I clean, inspect, and lube my firearms after every use, so I don't expect to see any "dried out lubrication".
