Two days in a row going to the range? Not even bother to take out the bag. Some wipe with rem oil in the morning and good to go. It helps being reliable Tupperware too...


If the get shot? Really?.... I've seen you cleaning them WHILE shooting, at lunch time. Unless you worked that OCD of yours, doubt is different.

Shhhhh. I'm a bit better now. I will still clean them after shooting, probably at the range since I carry my cleaning tools in the range bag.

I will do this if the gun used for the practice, class, competition, session is also the one being used for SD, which my Glock 19 you've seen me shoot is.

Depends on the firearm. I don't try for 'basic training military clean' any more.

I spend about 30 minutes cleaning the ARs, most of that is soak time for the barrel and BCG.

The AKs get some foaming bore cleaner and a few patches through the barrel about twice a year, then wipe down and grease the BCG.

1903s, Garand, M1A, and M1 carbine get a wipe down and lube, use an OTIS pull through for the barrel, detail stripped\cleaned once per year.

M2 carbine gets a detail strip after each trip to the range.

About 10 - 15 minutes on pistols, .22 pistols get a bit more because they tend to be dirtier.
