Plus I have music playing, posters and man stuff. 😋

Sounds like your man cave lol. And really, she doesn't like that pleasant minty Froglube aroma wafting through the house?

Rob_S is entitled to his opinion, doesn't make them right or wrong. I probably don't get to shoot as much as Rob_S. I've only been through between 700 to 800 rounds so far this year, mostly M855, M193 and .45 ACP. I also hate reloading and stage my stuff before going out to shoot. But I do love to clean, that's the way Dad taught me and it's stuck with me.

So far I have put 450 rounds through my AR. Im running a Rainier Arms BCG I bought on sale last year (http://www.rainierarms.com/rainier-arms-bcg-phosphate). Before I shoot it, I lube it with either SLIP2k EWL or M-Pro 7 CLP. I run a bead on the top half of the actual bolt where it touches the bolt carrier, a drop or two down where the cam pin sits inside the bolt, and spread a thin coat onto the BCG itself when I feel like it. I hate cleaning AR's.

Honestly, much like rob, I don't clean shit either. Other than my duty weapons, most of my other guns rarely get more than a wipe down and lube.

I don't clean shit. Hate it. Almost as much as I hate reloading. And generally anything having to do with guns that isn't shooting them.

I have so many parts that I've bought over the years and the very idea that using them means I have to install them has meant they go un-installed and eventually get sold off.

I used to like/care-about those things, now I hate all of it. I even stage my gear ahead of time so I can just grab this bag, that can, and this gun and go to the range.

I swear, I think some people are the polar opposite, and like everything about guns EXCEPT for shooting them.

I can't always shoot so I use cleaning/reloading time as my "gun time"...it's also cathartic. Relaxing.

I was one of the military people who didn't hate the repetion of weapons maintenance (as long as leave/passes didn't depend on it) and I still go over my weapons with a fine tooth comb

Shit send it to me. I'll clean it. Actually thought of a service for cleaning my co-workers duty weapons since most of them don't shoot it until qualification time.

Sorry for delay response. No she hates the smell of froglube for some reason.

Does use a roller cam pin in their BCG? My buddy has them in all of his AR's and swears by them!

It's a superfluous added failure point.

100% Agree. Plus this is really for Piston Systems. You can install it on a DI Carrier, but you'll have to remove the gas key first. Unless you know what you're doing, I don't recommend that.

I use the C.A.T. M-4 Tool to clean my BCG.

Straying off topic a bit, but yes, I have one. I was asked to try one out, and did a short review a few years ago. Cliff Notes: It works on a DI gun. No apparent benefit. Requires modified gas key installation.
