The only thing I can suggest is to put in a stiffer plunger spring so that the safety has to work the detent harder.

Neither. I use any of the following:
- Molybdenum Grease
- Modify PTFE Lubricant
- Systema Gear Grease
- Prometheus Gear Grease
- Super Lube (with PTFE)
- Phoenix Gear Grease

Using silicone oil on ANY metal-on-metal application is a waste in effort and material. It won't stick, and does nothing to actually lubricate the parts. It'll also make a mess as it creeps everywhere.
