Finally cleaned the Springfield Armory 1911A1 .45ACP
I mentioned the other day that I had a pistol that I had put away dirty and I needed to put my universe back in order ...
DONE, DONE, DONE! This pistol was last used three years ago. Yeah, I feel guilty ...
Do firearms (aside from those burning black-powder) need to be cleaned after every use? Well, I've seen many shooting-range-rentals that look like they have been heavily used and never cleaned. I prefer to clean guns after each session ... but every once in a while I let things slide before I get around to the task. Insofar as the reliability of 1911 pattern pistols, IMHO they are outstanding performers when cleaned and lubed after (or before) each session ... your mileage may vary.
