Overall mindset:

keep it simple and minimal. Having a basic mechanical understanding of how the parts work and interface with each other will help you understand why "over-lubing" is not the preferred method for an AR15. Over-lubing will lead to dripping or wet parts, which are dust/dirt magnets. Often times AR15 owners who over-lubricate don't know it's a problem because the AR15 will still function even with too much oil -it only becomes a problem when the rifle is taken outdoors, in the field, or exposed to dirty/dusty situations.
