The in the "field' rifle can be a prized blue metal finished rifle like so many today.
In the HW35E "Silver Look" the "bluing" is no longer there at all. What is there is a coat of nickel thinner than the nickel finished SWs in 19 or 27 or 29 in those days. The finish is embedded even in the air chamber and bore. The joints are all nickle and have about 90% less "wear" and "feel" of wear; holding the original brand new gun into brand new gun original that actually gets faster and easier in thousands of rounds.
Compare this to blued bores and joint surfaces and you'll NEED lubrication of some sort to keep the joints fluid.
You really never have to oil the joints on the Silver E HW35s and if you do take them into the field that is rainy or wet or snow you'll be glad it isn't your real prized and expensive BLUE version!
