What cleaner/lube to use for new AR

[sundog]

Ed's Red, anyone?

Ed's Red is a great and inexpensive if you mix it yourself. Add a fifth part of pharmaceutical ammonia and you have a good bore cleaner. Wipe-out is a fantastic copper reducer - and quick, too. I use Mobile synthetic for lube (since I ran out of CLP). One quart lasts forever.

If I'm in a hurry to clean the BCG, I spray with break cleaner and relube with Mobile synthetic.
