What type of cleaning kit to get
I just purchases my first gun, a S&W sigma .40. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a quality cleaning kit that will come with what I need to get the job done. If you could add a link that would be helpful. Thanks.

Cabellas has some very nice kits for all sizes.. I think Dick's sporting goods has a nice one with a wood case on sale for 19.99.
They're basic, but they'll get the job done....

If you only own one weapon, don't bother with a kit. Go to a gunstore, buy a bore rod, a nylon and a copper brush for your bore size and a patch adapter. Then buy a bottle of Hoppes #9 solvent and a bottle of Weapon Shield gun oil.
Then, go to a drug store and buy a box of Q-Tips.
An old cotton T-shirt works well for cutting cleaning patches from.
You'll spend half of what a kit costs and have everything you need.
A Cleaning Kit is only useful if you need to clean multiple calibers of pistol and rifle.

Wash it with soap and water. I have one for my rifle works great. Here is a link to midway.

If you plan to purchase additional firearms I recommend the Otis kit. I have one and it works on everything from my .17 hmr to my 12 gauge.
