re: How often do you clean your guns?

Glock 19- probably every 500 rounds or so. I do check it out and clean all the crap/dust/lint out whenever it builds up as needed though.
AR- hardly ever gets cleaned, mainly whenever I feel like it, probably matches the glock.
Custom 260- around 500 rds or whenever accuracy falls off. This is when I clean the barrel. I'll clean then chamber,bolt,etc. as often as I shoot it, but touch my barrel and we'll probably fight.
Cleaning is all relative. Do you strip all of the copper out of the barrel? Or are you just wiping it down getting the dust off?
My guns get cleaned when I out shoot them, typically around 500 rounds. However, they are rarely ever literally dirty, unless during a match. I try to keep the action and bore covered with a towel or case. Some of these matches have dust that can take a gun out, so keeping the gun running is a huge priority. So in that case I'm always cleaning, but not "cleaning" as defined here, or conversely I rarely "clean" my guns yet they are always clean.
