What's the most rounds you've shot through your AR and not cleaned it?

[blasternank]

What's the most rounds you've shot through your AR and not cleaned it? Was it still reliable? I'm just curious. I've shot maybe 500 or so rounds without cleaning it. I'm just curious how far some go without cleaning it up!

Thanks.

1,000 here, and no relube. Bcm lightweight carbine, ops-416.

About 1700. 1400 in an EAG class out of that amount. No cleaning just lubed it...

[RustedAce]

5000 something. In a bushmaster. It never failed.

[Rhutch]

1200 plus no issues.

op- during a 9 day contract traing job as an instructor i put the following thru 3 rifles- lwrc m6a2stretch -3800 rds,700supressed,just lube- fn scar 16s-5800 rds ,just lube, issue colt[new] m4 carbine,1500rds cleaned at 600rds,900 just lube,the m4 never stuttered,just got sluggish,cleaned it ,than ran wide open,lots of 3rd burst,no problem,the 2 pistons never slowed, smoothrunning ,much cooler,yeah they were filthy but no problems either,pmags run in all rifles,some of the older issue G.I. mags caused lots of range slow downs,why they don,t adopt for at least depolying unit boogle the mind.when finished,doing weapons maintence sure was easy with the pistons,the joe;s i trained sure were jealous at the cleaning station

Probably only about 300. I'm anal about cleaning everything after a trip to the range.

Over 2,000 in a 14.5" Bushmaster and more than 2,000 through an LMT 10.5" added lubed and they both ran without issue. I imagine both would have just kept running until something broke.

5182 rounds. Had to clean it after that because the trigger stopped resetting (disconnector wouldn't let go of the hammer). It was crazy filthy and oozing lube like an old Harley. The whole time it was lubed with WeaponShield. This was my LMT 10.5" SBR with the old barrel, over 3K rounds of that was suppressed. This was the SBR I used in the Magpul Dynamics video 'Art of the Tactical Carbine 2'. I never cleaned it after that class until 5182 rounds.

3000rds suppressed, bet that was fun to clean.

1850.

Wasn't too bad. Slip2000 752 degreaser and hot water does a great job.

north of 2k Wolf steel cased, no problems, would drip lube on the BCG every now and again with FP-10. That was a RRA, I dont think Ive gone over 2k, prob around 1 to 1.5 at most on my Colt that replaced it between cleanings.

[LowSpeed_HighDrag]

800 with relube in the middle. I like to take care of it. My Glock, ehh, about 2500 and no lube.

[Blowby]

BM 16" Carbine - I put only about 900 in a 3 hour practice, target, drill with a bunch of enthusiasts.

[jbo723]

2600-2650 out of my KAC E3 with lube added before range/matches, 3500-3600 out of my 10.5" LWRC M6A2 right out of the box, 2400-2500 out of my LMT MRP 12" piston right out of the box..Never had a malf to date..KAC has a little over 4200 rounds through it so far..

I've got 2 currently, both frankenguns, with over 2500 rounds each including a class apiece. The major componets on one are all DD, the other ones parts being BCM. I guess it's time but they are both still 100%. The DD is a 16" pencil middie and the BCM is a 14.5" pencil middie.

According to this, Pat Rogers got his 'Filthy 14' up to around 26,000 rounds before he started experiencing reliability issues with it. Someone will correct me if I am wrong.

[Iraqgunz]

1000 rounds give or take with a suppressor. My follow on cleaning consisted of wiping the BCG off and relubing.

[pleaforwar]

1750 rounds in a single course through my LMT/Vltor/Sabre rifle. If by cleaning you mean a full clean, 3000+ rounds.
