I’m really starting to accumulate a lot of gun cleaning accessories in recent  years.   Not that I really felt I needed them, but I was wanted to know if they were useful and helped speed up or simplify the process.   Every firearm I own needs to be cleaned in a different manor.   I am very careful how I clean my Russian SKS rifles because I have seen on several occasion that using the wrong cleaning liquids like WD40 can actually cause the gun to double or go full auto.  Bolt action rifles are in another category because you really could get away with mostly just using gun oil or a rust inhibitor.

I have several AR15 rifles and I like shooting all of them, but when it comes to cleaning, It doesn’t matter what cleaning tools I have, my LWRCI M6A2 is my favorite to clean.   I don’t need to clean the LWRCI upper receivers pistol area more less than once every 2500 rds and there is absolutely no need for using a scraping tool inside the locking lugs or the bolt carrier like my direct impingement guns.  Depending on what type of AR15 fits your needs the LWRCI gun may cost you 30-50% more than a less expensive gun, but there are hobby guns and there are combat carbines. And you get what you pay for.  How about accuracy, reliability and easy cleaning?
