| While I realize that this post may elicit buku responses, I nevertheless would like to know what items, fluids, oils etc, make up the ideal AR15 cleaning kit. I have a large selection of rods, brushes holders etc, but never set aside a kit specifically for my AR. Since I was a Nasal Radiator in the war, all I had to worry about was a side arm and no AR/M16. So any help would be appreciated. Let's keep it real though boys. And thanks and blue side up. |

My AR-15 field cleaning kit (most came with a Bushmaster kit purchased at Gander Mountian) :
- Steel jointed cleaning rod - Boresnake - Breakfree CLP - Chamber brush - Q-TIps - Bore brush - Otis .223 cleaning patches I usually spray chamber with brake parts cleaner after shooting. I run some Sweets 762 through every once in awhile to get rid of heavy duty fouling. |

You really can't go wrong with the issue kit. Can be had for about $15 in a buttstock or square pouch.
Some people like Otis or boresnakes but that steel rod comes in very handy if you ever have to clear a bore obstruction in the field. Get some fancier stuff like Dewey rods and scrapers for the bench at home. |
