Ya don't need much....q tips, rags, SLIP 2000 lube & if ya want SLIP 2000 cleaner & then a basic rod, eyelit, patches, chamber and bore brush....ya get a better quality & cheaper kit by piecing it together

Read about Filthy 14......

BCM Filthy 14 ?? - Page 3 - M4Carbine.net Forums

Cleaning AR's is way over rated, I've got some with thousands of round down range...and hardly touched...just keep em wet with oil (almost dripping) and your good to go...

One thing you do need is a segmented cleaning rod, thus if ya get a stuck case you can use the segmented rod to push the stock case out...

and if that does not work, a stuck case extractor will be needed....
