The NSSF video is a good starting point.

There are various methods, tools, & solvents that can be used to clean a firearm that can be used in an infinite combination.

No matter the method espoused by faceless individuals on an Internet forum, the basic goals are the same.

Clean out barrel
Clean out chamber
Clean bolt carrier
Clean bolt
Lube

Find the combo that works for you.

I use:

Otis flexible rod cleaning kit.
C.A.T. M4 tool. *
Talon Lug cleaning tool *
.223/5.56 chamber brush *
Hoppes No. 9
Rem Oil
Rags

* These tools aren't necessary, they just make the cleaning process faster for me.

I also keep a bore snake & Hoppes spray gun cleaner in my range bag just in case.
