Cleaning an AR-15

[dudley2112]

Just wondering if theres anything different about cleaning an Ar-15 as oppose to cleaning any other rifle. Do i have to clean the gas tube? is it worth it to get an actual ar15 cleaning kit with chamber brush etc?

I think you should leave the gas tube alone. Chamber brush is helpful, that and some mini toothbrush style cleaners.

Yeah don't worry about the gas tube.Everything else just needs to be relatively free of carbon buildup including the chamber.Otis makes some really good little kits.I'm sure some of the sponsors carry them.
