I've read in enough books that they used it in wwii as well for wwii era guns...

edit: at least they used urine to unfreeze the guns in russia...so I could be wrong about cooling, I dunno.

Obviously not urine, but same Idea.
Also, on the eastern front the germans would rub snow on the barrel of the MG42s/34s for cooling all the time.
