The soft, flexible mat is designed to protect the finish of your firearm during cleaning or repair. Its spongy neoprene core safeguards the gun from impacts and scratches, while the nylon outer shell preserves the bluing and prevents cleaning rods from accumulating particles that could damage the rifling. Appropriately sized to accommodate a handgun and one or two cleaning rods, this mat is versatile for use on the workbench, at the range or in the shop. It conveniently rolls up for compact storage in your range bag and maintains its shape. Additionally, if it becomes soiled, it can be easily cleaned with warm water and mild detergent, then allowed to dry thoroughly.
