How often to clean your EDC - Mike25 - 08-16-2014

Just curious. How often do you all clean your EDC's? Typically I've cleaned mine after every trip to the range. Do you think it's necessary to clean every few weeks even w/out firing it. I know everyone has different opinions but I was just curious. Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't clean it, unless you went to the range. Maybe every month run a patch through it, dry fir it, just as a check up?

Or just a light brushing to clear lint

I actually also take weather into consideration to determine when I clean. Winter I normally clean once a month and summer every other month or so (range or no range). Winter I worry more about the condensation on the firearm going from warm to cold environments.

I would probably do about the same. The frog lube is suppose to be able to protect everything against the condensation and the elements over the entire gun inside and out. I've liked the videos and reviews on it so far. My main problem so far is overusing it a little bit... So I need to tone that down a bit.
