The small parts that articulate against other metal parts should be done with Cerakote Microslick, unless it's just the outside of them that will be done. Cerakote galls against metal surfaces when there is high wear.
Anything steel that will be exposed to the elements should probably be coated if you plan to spend time in the outdoors with it, including rain.
The things that start to rust first are:
Steel Scope ring and base screws
Steel Handguard screws
Ejection port cover, rod
Steel Receiver end plate
Steel End plate lock ring
Forward Assist Button
Selector
Mag catch
TD pin
Pivot Pin
