IMO
If I owned a 1911 it would get a good cleaning after every range trip, kept with a very light coat of oil on it and such. I would also see exactly how much I could get a way with on one of those. What I mean is, does it function 100% with just a light cleaning and lube, or does it need to be a 100% detail job on the cleaning.
I always wipe down my guns after each outing. Usually a silicone rag or a light coat of a gun oil. Run a bore snake through a couple of passes even if I didn't fire a round.
