REVIEW: T.A.B. Gear Pollok Shooting Mat

A clear conscience is a soft pillow. That's nice and all, but when it comes to the ground, something materialistic is more helpful. For example, for the sniper the Pollok Shooting Mat from T.A.B. Gear, which is available in Germany at POL-TEC. Here in the image still rolled up small, in size similar to a small, thick Nalgene bottle. We unrolled it for you.

There it is on the floor: the folds from the folding are clearly visible. The size of the Shooting Mat measures 182 by 76 centimeters (cm). (Rolled up it was 20 x 10 cm). The material is solid 1,000D Cordura, so it tends to survive an atomic blast.

In the front third, a double-hand-sized strip of soft plastic is incorporated. Not that snipers are softies, but when lying on the ground with the weapon ready, at least the elbows are slightly padded. The mat itself is coated with a waterproof urethane coating. Wet is not always cool.

Each corner of the T.A.B. Gear Pollok Shooting Mat has a loop. Four pegs are included, so the mat can be easily tensioned. With D-rings and MOLLE straps, it is rolled up and can also be attached to the backpack.

And sometimes a movie says more than 1,000 words.

CONCLUSION: Small and fine, then large and practical. The T.A.B. Gear Pollok Shooting Mat is an equipment piece for shooters who like to have something under them while on the ground.

The T.A.B. Gear Pollok Shooting Mat is available in Germany at Pol-Tec for 91.90 euros. It is available in Black, Coyote, OD, and Multicam.
