Yup, AR's like to be clean. When a buddy of mine bought his first AR- I gave him some pointers along the way with a heavy emphasis on keeping it clean. He made his way to Camp Perry with a dirty one where I guess the humidity played it's card. In short order, he said he was sitting there taking in awful looks and snide remarks from a USMC Line Armorer who preached a cleaning sermon to him. He's a great fella and a good friend... but still- I ain't a-gonna let him forget that.
