Cleaning your gun... only shooting 100rds a match

[LabMan]

Someone has got be the adult here. 

It definitely won't be you.

Since your opinion and what you think means nothing to me.....

You are right, JS.

So before I started USPSA we would shoot on our property all day, maybe 500rds+ each gun, so cleaning wasn't as questionable.

I just started shooting USPSA and was wondering, if you had a stock Glock 17 would you clean it after every practice match? I mean, we're only shooting 75-100rds.

I guess my main question is, does anything "stick" if you don't clean it? We're just talking about powder residue right? I never have leading issues and I notice no noticeable accuracy issues even 500+ rounds in if I shoot that in a single day, just to clear that up too.

Moral of the story taymag, Do what makes you comfortable. Your gun should be fine either way. It might just take a little bit more elbow grease to get it clean if you leave the grime caked on. Personally, I usually clean my comp guns (1911s and 2011) every thousand rounds or so. My carry gun generally gets cleaned after every use.
