I have my first handgun and I am a little confused as to what lightly lubricate means. I don't want to over or under lube my guns and have no military or law enforcement training on how to maintain your weapon so I was hoping somebody could tell me the pros recommend you do it.

So to reiterate, how much oil is enough on a 1911 and how do you apply it??
