Lyman is making a new mat designed to make cleaning or working on your gun a bit easier.  Safe to say we’ve all had a spring roll away or a small part slide to parts unknown, and the company’s new gun mat is designed to stop those things from happening. The mat has designated sections for various parts, and each section is very slightly recessed with the intention of preventing parts from moving around excessively.

From Lyman:

“Lyman’s breakthrough design overcomes the shortcomings of traditional flat mats. Incorporating a collection of slightly recessed sections, the design keeps small items organized and secure from rolling off the bench and contains small spills during cleaning and lubrication. Further, the mat material is a tough but soft polymer that both protects gun finishes and is chemical resistant.

The Essential Gun Maintenance Mat from Lyman as well as all Lyman products and brands are available nationally through firearms and sporting goods dealers and mail order companies.”

MSRP $14.98. Visit their website at: www.lymanproducts.com and take a look at the mat at http://www.lymanproducts.com/lyman/GunCleaning/gunmat.php
