CLP is a good general purpose lubricant. In some modern semi-auto guns, synthetic engine oils such as Mobil 1 can actually work well. For some components, a light coat of of grease can help, as long as it is not a place that catches too much gunk.
For break over shotguns, I put grease on the hinge pin and fore end latch. I also spray some CLP on the locking lug for the barrel, and the ejectors or extractor. For a bolt action rifle, a light coat of CLP on all the mechanical bits should work well enough. On handguns, I like to grease the slide rails of semi auto, and the locking bolts of revolvers, and put oil everywhere else.
