How often do you field strip and clean your semi handgun?
I have read everything from 5k to 1k rounds? Is it just
possible to clean the bore and inside a bit without taking
the slide and everything apart?

Maybe I should just get a revolver..lol but, I want the
higher capacity mags I can get in the semi.
Most people will say if its a defensive carry gun you should clean it every time. I try to do that, but don.t always get it done.

Yes, you can run a bore snake through it for a quick clean.
