It better not.
Is it up to the individual officer to maintain commonly shared weapons (shotguns, carbines) that never really leave the vehicle? ...I can easily understand how it would be the individual officer's responsibility to maintain their sidearm, but how does all the other shared "junk in the trunk" get maintained? Any experience about how long things can go before lubes evaporate and effectivenss is lost?
Weekly inspection/dusting/relubing by the officer. Monthly and unannounced inspections by the armorer. Detailed inspections 2x annually or so.
Shotguns live in the cars. Rifles/carbines have to come out at night.
If they're not found wet, they get relubed. It seems to be needed every couple of weeks or so. If they didn't get relubed, they would still run through a basic load.
