Handgun operation

Indeed, a non-functional firearm is of no use when stuff hits the fan. Yet how many don't do regular maintenance of their carry piece. Bits of lint, dust, etc can cause jams and other issues - right at the worst moment. I read a piece recently about the firearms used by perps, and how many of them did not function properly. It made me wonder how many people are carrying a pistol that will not function in case of need. Regularly stripping/cleaning/lubing a carry piece should be habitual, along with regularly firing off the carry load and replacing with fresh ammo.
