I never really thought about it before I received my Utah permit, but I heard someone mention that a semi-auto chosen for CCW should never be cleaned after you fire it at the range.
I understand the logic in that you may put it back together incorrectly and it may not function when your life depends on it, but it drives me crazy to know that my pistol is dirty, as I have always done a thorough disassemble and cleaning when I got home.
I'm pretty confident in my skills when I take it apart and put it back together, and have never had a malfunction the next time at the range.
I'm pretty sure that the residue from the factory ammo I use will not cause damage to the gun, but is this the normal SOP for a pistol you are going to carry?
