Most gun shops lube them up before they put'em in the display
I have NEVER found this to be the case.

The gun may be shipped with preservative grease from the manufacturer (or not, as in the case of a bone dry Ruger Mark II I bought a few years ago), but I know of no dealers who are going to take the time and clean and lube new guns just for the heck of it.
