    (In all seriousness, I generally take pretty good care of my stuff and keep everything clean and well lubricated but if I?m going to get lazy with something or run something until it impacts reliability before I clean it then it?s probably going to be a shotgun.)
    My Benelli SBEII is an inertia action so requires even less cleaning than a gas gun, though it can be more fickle on cycling light loads if it's not kept moderately clean and oiled.

    Most of my guns are Stainless, Chromed, plastic, or otherwise protected from rust. Overcleaning a barrel can have a negative impact on accuracy, and overcleaning the action is just a waste of time and money. I fired 4k+ rds through my first G19 before I ever cleaned it. It was a bit grimy, but it wasn't having any issues.

    Lol. If you were a superhero your power would be spraying some sort of acidic fluid out of your body.

    To be fair, I've been carrying 16 hours a day, sweating profusely for at least half of that time, every day for over a month.

    Well, I still think you are more caustic than the average person.

    Yeah, the heat in the south is one thing... but the humidity is the real killer, especially if you're used to living in a pretty dry climate like CO.

    I really want to move somewhere that has 4 seasons and snow.
