I have a 1911 style pistol. How often should I clean it? I keep hearing after every 100 rounds, is this the best method?

Also what oil and lube is reccomended? I am a novice, and do not feel safe doing a detailed strip when the time comes, any suggestions?

Thanks for the help

Hey BOLANTEJ. you do not use any grease on it? I read up on the break-free, sounds like some good stuff. Might have to give it a try.

My gun has a full legnth rod. It is a Para P-13 (commander size). Brownell's said the shok-buff is not for use in the officers ACP model. Does mine fall into this category? I was thinking that it does.

I do not want to drill a hole in anything, but thanks for the help
