Hey everyone, I’ve been using my Benelli shotgun for a while now, and I’m curious—how often do you clean yours? I’ve heard some people say they clean it after every use, while others only do it every few outings or when it starts to feel sluggish. I want to make sure I’m taking good care of it without overdoing it, so what’s your routine?

Honestly, I clean mine after every trip to the range or hunting session. It’s probably overkill, but I like knowing it’s in top shape for next time. Plus, it’s kind of therapeutic to break it down and give it some TLC.

I’m pretty lazy about it, so I only clean my Benelli when it starts acting up or feels sticky. Usually, that’s after 4-5 outings. As long as it’s running smooth, I don’t stress too much about it.

I don’t have a set routine. Sometimes I clean it after one use, other times I forget for weeks. I just go by feel—if it’s dirty or not cycling right, that’s my cue to get to work.

I’m somewhere in the middle—I’ll give it a quick wipe-down and oil after every use, but I only do a full deep clean every few months or so. Seems to work fine for me!
