The popular AR 15, or modern sporting rifle, is a fine and ergonomic weapon, but for top performance it has to be kept clean with regular maintenance. Our AR gun cleaning mats protect the work area from oil and solvents while giving you a safe, non-slip area in which to work. Each mat is made of soft vulcanized rubber with a non-slip backing. We use a process called dye sublimation to print the images on the mats. This puts the image deep into the material of the mat and prevents fading over time.
It's easy to slip and scratch the surface of your gun, or to move the wrong way with a tool and accidentally gouge a tabletop. With our non-slip AR 15 gun cleaning mat, you'll be much less likely to do so, making cleaning safer and more fun.
Our AR cleaning mats protect the work area from solvents, oils, and other chemicals. Whether you're working at the kitchen table, on a countertop, or in your workshop, you never have to worry about damaging the area if it's protected by our gun cleaning mat.
Easily the most popular rifle in the United States, the semi-automatic AR 15 descends from Eugene Stoner's AR 10. The company Armalite sold patents and trademarks for the rifle to Colt's Manufacturing Company in 1959, and even though Colt no longer holds the patents for the gas operated bolt and carrier system, it remains the only company that can use the "AR -15" designation for its modern sporting rifles. Today, the AR15 can be had in many different calibers, while the US Military continues to search for a replacement for the AR's long-serving M16 counterpart. Often the subject of political wrangling, the AR platform remains an enduring, ergonomic, accurate, and fun-to-shoot rifle that stands thousands upon thousands of Americans in good stead.
