Re: Proper handgun maintenance

My carry and competition Glock 19 get's bore snaked and lubed after every other practice session, ie. every two weeks or 400 rounds.

When I was carrying my 1911, it got bore snaked and lubed after every practice session or every 200 rounds of dirty smokey lead reloads.

My other guns, the BHP, SIG, M+P and Smith revolvers don't get shot much so they get cleaned during the great biannual "find all the dirty guns the the safe and clean them" days. The carry guns get detail stripped, cleaned and springs replaced on those days too.

I have found that it's not dirty guns that malfunction, it's dry guns. Lube em, check the recoil springs often and run em hard.
