If you have to get a kit, Otis makes a nice one. But, I found that you are better off making your own kit.
1) Bore Snake to clean out the carbon out of the barrel
2) Tipton Deluxe Carbon Fiber 12" cleaning Rod -Twists the cleaning patch as you push it through the barrel. Super smooth, nice quality and worth the money.

3) Brass Tips Any Brand

4) Southern Bloomer Cotton Cleaning Patches Southern Bloomer Cotton Cleaning Patches
5) Lots of Qtips and pipe cleaners for the really hard to reach areas.

6) Microfiber Rags - Costco
7) Prolix Gun Cleaner - Won't harm your finishes and takes off carbon residue from slide, barrel and inside the frame. Apply and remove with Qtips. PrOlix Lubricants Home Page
8) Remington 40 X Bore Cleaner - For the stubborn heavy carbon deposits on the breach face and the extractor. Also apply with Qtips. I also use this for the barrel after the initial cleaning with Prolix.

9) Wilson Combat Oil and Grease - I use the oil for springs, decocker and takedown lever. I use the grease on the barrel, the slide area where the barrel rests, and on the frame and slide rails for storage.
