What guns require the least attention and maintenance? There are definitely times when I am packing for range and decide not to bring a particular gun because I don't want to clean it when I get home.
I love that I can put my Glock or my 10/22 away filthy after 1000 rounds in foul weather, come back six months later, and they are just fine. Same for my Mossberg 500 - beat around the field all day, get home, and just stick it back in the safe - it'll still work after a few months, no problem.
Meanwhile, I've had to mortar an AR that sat dirty for a couple of months and the bolt wouldn't open. My Mosin will rust after milsurp ammo so I clean that after each outing. My Garand doesn't get shot all that often so I try to lightly oil it before putting it away. Jury is still out on my Henry Big Boy but I think it's too pretty not to clean religiously.
So what do you have that's worry-free and needs minimal maintenance?
