Welcome from the East Side. Just get it out of the case, field strip it, and give it a good cleaning before shooting. The rails don't need much at all. You can put a drop or two on a Q-tip and wipe the slide where it rides on the rails and then rails themselves. Anything more than that is going to collect gunk, junk, dirt, dust, and grime.

Some use Gun Grease, but I haven't tried it yet myself.
