There's a difference between use & abuse.
While I've never "babied" my guns, I've always certainly used them as much as I wanted, both shooting and hunting - and every single one of them look just about the same as when I took them from their respective boxes, new.
FWIW, while I use the guns, there's things I don't do - like actually "beat" the brush, use one as a stream-crossing crutch, or use one to finish off some wounded animal by clubbing it to death (as I've seen done on several occassions by others).
Every used gun I've sold, over the years, brought me top dollar, due to it's excellent condition - so, IMO, care & mainainence brings satisfaction in both usage & at sale time .
