I have not shot any of my firearms for over 6 months...just so busy with work and on the weekends I have other things to do i.e. college football games. I feel guilty especially for my M4, it's became a Safe Queen! Do i need to worry about any maintence, it's all lubed with FP-10 CLP.

I would think it would be ok. However why not pull it out of the safe & fondle it during the game. Ya know becomming one w/ the weapon, an extension of your body. Have you hugged your rifle today ? It just wants to be held !!!!!

I think with all the security at the football stadium, an M4 is on there "what not to bring" list [:D]

sounds like you need some professional help...get a prescription for a new ACOG or something to make them more fun to shoot.

As absolution you must fire 10 magazines, and  perform the sacred cleansing ritual.
Now go forth and sin no more.

The carrier in CLP will evaporate and will not longer leave your rifle lubed after a couple months.  You need to wipe it down with CLP every couple months if you expect to be able to shoot it at a moments noticed and not have malfunctions.  Also I would not want to have forgotten some small spot I missed and let it sit for a year and eat a hole in my rifle.

As long as those ten mags are [b]30[/b] rounders [;)]

200 rounds is not sufficient penance for his sins...

Eh... that's nothing... I've left a couple stainless models sit for a few years unfired, and un cleaned after their last firing...

I Joined a range a few months ago, and have already fired them and cleaned and there weren't any issues...

For God's sakes man!!!

At least do some dry fire drills, or something, during commercials!!

Hell, sometimes I just get a gun out and fondle it while watching TV, it makes me feel better....

Through the ministry of AR15.com, may God give you pardon and peace, and I absolve you from your sins, in the name of the AR, the AK, and the FN FAL.

Go in peace, and sin no more.

Hell yeah Brad!!

Wife walks in and I am watching the World Series fondling an AR.  She shakes her head and walks the other way.  Bulldog looks at her like: "I am no part of this shenanigan..."

I think it's OK to fondle your AR while watching TV provided you are fully clothed... who knows what would happen if an anti-gun zealot got a picture of a naked man sitting on his couch watching TV with an AR on his lap... not a pretty picture.
