[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2218469, member: 5412"] The original M-16 was issued without cleaning kits, as they were not needed according to the manufacturer. We quickly found out that after 800-1000 rounds it sucked to have to clean the BCG in the middle of a fire fight in total darkness. Quick wipe on the shirt that almost went on fire from the heat, and shoot another 500 or so. A1 models had cleaning kits with lube, etc. I still have a small bottle of the lube, and a steel chamber cleaning rod. [/QUOTE]
