What is your choice of cleaning solution for your guns?

I might douse the bolts after a run of Wolf ammo...but my reloads run pretty clean. I probably go 1000 rounds between full cleanings, even my Trap shotguns only get cleaned once a year after the season is over

If my firearms choke on a little dirt, then I either need to fix them or replace them

I have no doubt my glock would work just fine not cleaning it much at all. My grandpa instilled in me at young age to clean every time the gun is shot so I stick to cleaning them after each use.

Well...yes and no. I think it is a good idea to push your firearm to see how far it will go before it starts to experience issues. That is all part of knowing your firearm(s). But if you are trusting a particular firearm for SD, why let it get anywhere close to that threshold otherwise? If you know they work better "dirty", then that's another thing, but I don't think too many guns have issues because of being clean. Mind you this is different than running a copper brush down the barrel after every 100 rounds. That could be damaging.
