    Gun bag/shooting mat

    I just bought myself one of these. They're $120 at quartermasters supplies but they might be sold out by now. Freaking awesome value

    What are the dimensions DIB (closed and opened out)?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction

    Those compartments for the charts and ammo are easily clipped on and off if you need to take them up to the target. Any of the straps you don't need have velcro pouches to make them disappear. Still loving the fact i can leave the silencer on for my day at the range! I prefer to give it a blast with compressed air before unscrewing it at home - something i didnt think about till i lost some bluing due to some grit.
    The bungee strap holds the bolt down / rifle in one place. The main 4 clip/straps around the outside take the strain off the main zipper.

    Cant see myself clipping water bottles and maglite torches on the outside. One could turn up to a shoot looking like a complete tosser haha. Those alice clip mounts all over the outside might come in handy if i ever wanted to cam it up with scrim or something.

    A big shout out to China - cheers for making something so complicated for peanuts haha.

    What is the material like in terms of rain or putting it on damp ground ?

    Does it soak up any moisture or is it reasonably shower proof ?

    Anyone using the Ridgeline roll-up mat sold by Gunworks ?
