Give G96 spray a try. Shell Roteilla 0W40 pure synthetic diesel oil on the high wear points. No rust, good in dust and will work in -50 celcius as well (have proved the sub 50 part as well as the dust). Rust won't be an issue anymore either.
How common is the HK P7 way up north?

Given a choice, I'd carry my G19 rather than my P7. The G19 is more effortlessly accurate in my hands, and heaven forbid, if you have to creep up on an objective, the P7 squeeze cocker is surprisingly loud in the quiet dark. Others here who have carried the P7 in tactical circumstances will attest to that too.
One answer is simply to hold off cocking it until the last possible moment, when you're nice and close and the sound is even louder.
The P7 is a fine pistol, and I will never be without one. But the Glock 19 to P7 ratio in my safe is well above 3:1, which sort of follows the relative price here... and I shoot the Glocks much more often, just because they do hit the target with less effort.

There is another way--relax the hold on the cocking lever (i.e., allow it to go all the way forward), press the trigger back, and then squeeze the cocking lever firmly if you feel you must shoot. The sound of the gun cocking will be lost in the muzzle report.
