After every range trip I wipe down the bolt and inside of upper with a rag and pull wet/dry patch down barrel with Otis kit. Doesn't take much time. 9mm suppressed gets dirty fast.

I clean everything after every shooting. But that's only a .22 and a .38 . . . .

I have an AR45 and it went about 800 rounds suppressed before I started getting failures. A shot lube didn't correct the problem. |

I always cleaned mine thoroughly every time I shot it do to the amount of crud the supressor builds up in it. It has run perfectly since the day I built it and never had a single issue up until the one time I got lazy and let it ride. It had a jam of some sort every round that trip. I'm back on my original thought process now.

I did a detailed a cleaning and changed the spring/buffer combo while i had it on the bench. At the point of the initial build, I was using the stock rifle spring and buffer with the fixed magpul moe stock. This afternoon I installed a spacer, carbine spring and Spikes STX buffer.

I clean mine after each range trip. Even after only a couple of hundred rounds, it's pretty dirty. I also take down the Ti-RANT 9 to at least inspect it. I clean the dirtiest parts which is usually the area and parts closest to the muzzle. Everything gets at least a spray of CLP and a wipe down. I shoot AE 147gr and Rem UMC 147gr at the range. Haven't seen any difference in fouling by either load, equally dirty. My 5.56 AR doesn't get as dirty as quickly, but it's not suppressed.

clean mine, after every range trip, think ive had 1 malfunction where a round stove piped in at least 1000 rounds, but I only run tula through it, just seems to have no lag in the recoil with that round. Also shot a bunch of federal bple 9 out of it the +P+ and have a issue with the brass splitting itself clear in half on quite a few rounds, never seen that before.

I reload and use a very clean burning powder and still clean mine everytime I get done with it (I usually shoot a 30 round mag a week).
I feel lucky to have a 9mm AR that doesn't malfunction, and spending 15 minutes cleaning it is worth the peace of mind that it will continue to fire every time I pull the trigger. |

I clean after every range trip, whether it's been 20 rounds of 2,000 rounds. I keep simple cleaning stuff in my range bag in case I start getting failures in a longer range session, but so far I haven't needed them.
