While I don't live in a cold climate I do live in a hot climate. I'd think good low and high temp stability would be a requirememt. Specific temperature range would be something I'd like to eval in any lube.
Another candidate may be one of the new synthetic motor oils. But, it's hygroscopic properties and water displacing properties should be reviewed. But, my take on gun lube requirements is that they are not that tough to meet. Specific pressures look to be low and surface speeds are low. Temp range and water displacing properties look to be the main issues.
