I do not know what the recommended round count is before a detailed strip cleaning. On a 1911 type pistol I do one about every 1,000 rounds. It has a lot to do with the type of ammo you use (clean burning powder, bullet being lead versus jacketed, etc).
I do it every time I buy a used gun.
The process is fairly straight forward if you are mechanically inclined. If you are not, buy a Glock.
Or you could ask a friend to help you out the first couple of times.
