Of the guns you've owned which would you say required the most meticulous maintanence?
Besides black powder guns a Walther P22 comes to mind. It needed to be cleaned after every 100 rounds or else everything would come to a screeching halt. Had to practically disassemble the gun, clean it, and lube it to get it going again.
I should add I did have a Colt Gold Cup that was very choosy about what particular ammo it liked but really didn't require all that much more in the way of extra maintenance.

Just disassembling the ARs to the point where I can clean the bolt and piston rings takes longer than fully attending to anything else I own.
...takes me back in time.
I agree about BP guns, but I may be one of the few that find it enjoyable after a day's shooting to set at the table and clean them. Kinda therapeutic and takes me back in time.
