Ok i am a first time buyer of an AR-15, I will be shooting it this weekend and wanted to know what exactly do i need to clean, i have read that you should clean it before you fire the gun for the first time. I am not exaclty sure waht to clean and where to oil?
Is there a tuturial with pictures showing what exactly needs to be cleaned and where to oil exactly? Does CLP work for everything or is it just a barrel cleaner?

Thanks

Go to www.AR15.com (the home page)

On the left side look for "Downloads & Manuals'.  Click on this.

Scroll down and look for TM9-1005-319-10 M16A2 Operators Manual - click on it (You'll need to have Adobe Acrobat installed).

In it you'll find complete instructions on how to clean & lube your new rifle (as well as alot of other handy information).

Make sure once you open the file you save it to your harddisk or thumbdrive!

Along with Forest’s recommendation, you can look here for Maintenance and Cleaning info.
