Well, it must be a thing because I have no less than 13 gun cleaning kits... no joke... 2 of them just bought this year.What is this "Cleaning Guns" thing all about? Are you actually suppose to do that???
Truth. At least in my case, the older I got, the less often I even thought about gun cleaning. Sometimes, I wake up and feel guilty about that... and in one case I may have actually damaged the gun from a lack of cleaning after using.Back in my youth I was obsessed with keeping my guns clean even after firing a single round. 35 years later.....I can't remember the last time I cleaned any of them. I'll clean a brand new one then relube, but after that it's a basic wipedown and done. If I notice malfunctions and such I'll do a thorough cleaning. But that hasn't been the case....yet.
To say that I dislike gun cleaning is an understatement. I genuinely HATE gun cleaning. If I ever win the Powerball lottery grand prize, I intend to hire a full-time gun cleaner dude and set him up in my brand new gun cleaning room addition... complete with venting system, multiple benches and unlimited supplies!
