Another thing important to note is other than parts inspection,lubrication and corrosion concerns(very humid environment here),I also alternate between steel cased and brass case ammunition from one day to the next.
That said Ive found that when using strict diets of steel cased ammo alone, its good practice to clean the chamber every 400 rounds or so to keep the weapon functional.
A basic cleaning as outlined in the -10 helps keep the weapon in functional condition no matter what can/mag of ammo I grab going out the door on the next use.Plus when I put the weapons away I consider them to be in grab and go condition,particularly defensive situations,so all the above applies for me.
IMHO a few minutes spent doing at least a minimal PM after use is not much effort to expend in keeping my somewhat expensive and trusted weapons in the best condition I can.
Same philosophy translated to my hand tools,vehicles etc...
