Once in a great while if it had light use during the last firing I may only Bore Snake it and re-lube if I don't have time to do a full cleaning. Other than those rare occasions I may not get right to cleaning immediately but it will happen eventually. I enjoy cleaning guns but don't always have the time to get right to it.

		"clip" and "kill shot" should never be uttered by self-respecting firearm owners.
