Cleaning a 1911

How often should I clean my 4" GI .45? I've put 120 rounds through it of Remington and Winchester target ammo. I'd like to have something to look forward too, that way the thing isn't jamming every other shot before I decide it needs a good cleaning.

I have had times when I ran hundreds of rounds through mine ( SA mil spec .45) over several shooting sessions without cleaning and without malfunctions.

As you use your gun, you'll learn its behavior patterns.
