Man I seriously don't see how you guys go without cleaning your rifles. I physically CAN'T not clean mine!!! My OCD would beat me to within an inch of my life if I tried! That's ANY firearm not just my MLers. My carry pistol is cleaned every day. Walk in, break it down, give it a loving wipe and bore clean, lightly oiled, reassembled, and according to which one I carried that day, is put in it's little "spot" somewhere throughout the house for quick access if needed.
