I’d only take it apart if you were having light strikes. In the 6000+ rounds I have through mine, I’ve done it once only bc I wanted to know how to take it apart.

I’ve always just flushed them good with a spray cleaner and lubed accordingly.
Never had an issue.

Perhaps semi-annually regardless of round count (15-22 only). Gun runs very clean w/ CCI Tactical.

How often? When they break. I've never seen enough crud in there to warrant thinking about doing it more often.
