Default Cleaning AR-15's

Ihave been around bolt guns and few semis for decades. I feel I really do a good job cleaning.

But, with the AR and dirty ammo, I feel like am doing a half but job on it. Theres dirt everywhere. I never seem to get out all the fouling. There'sfoulingeven inthe hammer assembly. All over the action. Am I overdoing it? I just can't seem to get in the groove of cleaning it.

I clean out the barrel real good. Lots of powder fouling shooting plinking ammo. I clean out the chamber real good. But the rest seems to be a loss.

I had a few people on AR15.com tell me after I am done to spray some CLP in the gas holes on the bolt. It would look like that would attract more dirt. They tell me they use CLP to clean everythign but the barrel. Talk about a mess.
