I've never seen anything historical about him shooting his guns every day. I have seen it mentioned that he cleaned them every day but not the process involved. How thorough was his cleaning? Did he unload them for a thorough cleaning or did somebody see him wipe them down on a couple of occasions and ran with it? Nobody know and likely never will.
