i ise bore snakes on all my fire arms especially on my edc postols and field rifles. so add those to it. they are good for getting the everday grime out of the barrel and a quick swab after a 100 pistol rounds. get one! next are nylon brushes for the moderate cleaning, it is just less abrasive plus it helps season a barrel between load changes and heavy cleaning. the bronze brush are usually every 500 rouns or so or when i change loads in the hunting rifles.

cleaning rods, looking into the fiber glass or carbon fiber rods from tipton or gunslick. they run approx $50 and each rod size services a smaller number of calibers but they are worth it.

when it comes to regular "at the shop" cleaning i say use dedicated cleaner and lubes avoid CLPs. If you are just doing at the range swab-ups CLPs are fine (mpro-7 or, gunzilla or hoppes).

when it comes to my edc pistol i always use dedicated cleaners and lubes. CLPs tend to be found lacking for me.
