I'd say either Hoppes or ZoomSpout oil would be a good addition to have around. You might be able to find one of them locally or on Amazon to save on shipping.

Note: the ZoomSpout seems to come in a few different formulations, the link above is one I use for general lubrication, but I'm not sure if it is the same as Kirk uses.
