Correct me if I'm wrong, but from reading your posts it appears you just shot the guns right out of the box, new?

It's generally good practice to clean the gun prior to shooting it for the first time. It goes for new and used, as I'm pretty sure everyone likes to check out the gun thoroughly if they bought it used.

I've never shot my guns out of the box new, simply because I know they'll have tons of factory lube and grease for preservation purposes. It has it's purpose, but i don't believe it's to shoot the gun.

I would give quick but thorough clean job where depending the area, just wipe off the excess grease, or clean with CLP and lube if necessary.

Enjoy.

*edit* Try not to go "overboard' especially with lubes. I understand Glock runs OK w/ little lube so it goes double for you probably.
