What is best way to clean a .177 air pistol (Walther CP2)? Brass rod? Dewey coated rod? Patch worm?

Until now have shot 22 long rifles and very familiar with cleaning rods and bore guides.

Thanks!

I don't usually bother, but once in a while I'll shoot the ends broken off a Q-Tip.

No need to clean with anything other than a dry felt pellet.

The instructions that came with my LP5 2001 say not to clean it.
