There is a ton of cleaning information for AR-15s on the internet. Do a simple Google search and Youtube search and you will get lots of write-ups and videos. The bolt carrier group is much more complex than your 15-22, and has some specific things to clean/maintain. The barrel cleans essentially the same way, as does the inside of the upper receiver. One big expection, you will need to keep the star chamber and chamber clean on your Sport. You don't need to clean anything in the front sight base (gas block), nor do you need to clean the gas tube. Those take care of themselves. A lot of the carbon is blown back into the bolt carrier group and the front of the upper, so that is where you will need to clean.

Congrats on your purchase and enjoy.
