While there is a HUGE variety of cleaning systems and materials available, let's start with the basics. A simple cleaning kit should be available at any gun shop, or the sporting goods department of your local department store. You will need a cleaning rod, a bore brush of the correct caliber (either bronze or synthetic- they both work) a cleaning patch holder, a good light gun oil (I use RemOil) and a powder solvent (I have been using Hoppes #9 for 60 years), and cleaning patches. A few Q tips are also handy for cleaning tight spots.
