This video from Brownells Gun Techs debunks the myth that you cannot "over-clean" a gun. While cleaning won't wear out a firearm, disassembling it too often for cleaning can shorten its service life due to wear on pins and screws. For modern polymer pistols, hosing them down with cleaner is sufficient. Older firearms like the Colt 1911, M1 Garand, and AR-15 are designed for regular disassembly, but care should be taken not to lose small parts. The video also touches on barrel cleaning for precision shooting and the clean-burning nature of modern .22 LR ammo.
