Fix my gun / Modding Hand tools for regular maintenance

I have a .223,.22LR, 7.62x39 and a 12 gauge. Do I need any kind of speciality screwdrivers for cleaning? I'm in the trades so I have a lot of different sized screwdriver bits but I don't know if I have any super small ones. The only thing I don't have is a torque screwdriver, should I buy a kit with the torque screwdriver and a bunch of different sized heads?

Torque limiter, brass and steel punches, a set good-quality hex wrenches in both SAE and metric, Torx bits, screw bits - ideally hollow ground for the slot bits, rubber mallet, nylon hammer, brass brushes, nylon and steel picks, bubble levels. Of course there’s a lot of other gadgets and tools depending on which model of gun you have.
