5880 rounds without cleaning, only clp added twice at random times. Not one problem.

 I bet if that was a piston system it would have had a failure in less than 2K rounds....

Damn! I guess I'm a nerd!
Impressive. I sure hope you didn't tear it down to clean it? I hope you keep running it just to see what happens and when! However, I thought only AKs could be shot more than 500 rounds with out cleaning?

So I guess this means your experiment is over and you cleaned it? Or are you putting it back together and going for 10,000 now?
And why +880 over your 5000 goal? Is that for the benefit of all the people in your first thread that thought you couldn't count?

I have DI and piston AR's, I clean them after almost every range session. Does that make me a really BIG nerd 
I just put together an AR recently to carry in my truck, it will get shot often. I will see how long I can go without cleaning it

coldn't possible be a non tier-1 rifle. No way would it run that long without some sort of breakdown.

I'd never let my ar get that dirty, but it's nice to know it's possible to go that long. did anyone else notice the blue insert for the extractor spring? so, unless he replaced the black one with a blue one this isn't even a tier 1 rifle.

Some people never take a shower, and they still walk around...but that don't make it right.
All of that crap in that AR is just causing it to wear quicker. All of my guns are clean. They get a complete tear down and cleaning after they are shot and before they go back in the safe. Not even one fingerprint in on any in the safe. Nerd...no, I have respect for my guns and take care of them. |

My Noveske I bought almost 2 years ago came with a blue one. Worked fine until i replaced it with a black one at about 2500 rounds. |

It's impossible to let an AR go that long without cleaning. It craps where it eats, I read it right here on arfcom.

I just went 4000 on my 5.45, well I cleaned the bolt only at 3000 to check for corrosion.
I should say, 4320. 4 1080 round tins of corrosive surplus. Reminds me of my 1911. This was several thousand rounds (over 3000 if I remember correctly) without cleaning or failures of any kind. I only cleaned it because my hands became filthy just from touching it.

This kind of abuse and "self taught home" gunsmiths doing trigger jobs and God knows what else, along with a couple other reasons is why I never buy a used firearm I do not know the history of.
Abuse like that will cut the life of that firearm down considerably. |
