New pistol never fired

[Baldnblk]

I just bought a new beretta nano from a buddy who never used it. I got it disassembled and it's completely dry no oil anywhere (no trace of rust either) do I oil it before firing if so how much oil and what part? Not sure how to care for pistols. Any help is appreciated.

Watch this lady clean and lube her Nano.

To answer the OP's actual question, I always make a point of cleaning and lubricating any gun I buy - new or used. It shouldn't be bone dry, but it shouldn't be dripping with oil either. Depending on the lubricant you use, just a thin film is all you need.

Oil 'em up and run 'em wet. That's the ticket.
