Thread bump, because I have someone trying to sell me one of these and I'm seriously considering it. I've looking to get an AR and spend in the $800 range, don't need any crazy accessories or anything really. But I wasn't prepared for an oilless rifle that the manufacturer recommends to wash with soap and water.

This will be my first AR. I'm a little uncomfortable with the no oil and no solvent cleaning deal.

I would still wipe down the BCG parts with a solvent cleaner and treat the chamber and bore as I would any other rifle. When it comes to lube I would just run it dry and see how it does. I've seen testing where a DSL treated AR went thousands of rounds with so little wear on the carrier rails and bolt that it would probably be indistinguishable from brand new parts.
