TEKMAT Gun Mats

[2A2Dend]

I ordered one of them due to the color depth and contrast. They're a 3D perspective break-down of the firearm. What a joke. I was really let down when I got it out of the package.

Note: After speaking with the seller, all the TEKMAT type that depict a color (digital) image, will not look that way when received. It will look like the bottom image. Which is lacking in visual depth.

Note 2: The crease is no longer noticeable (least on mine) the next day.

The image below shows how they look online.



This is what I got. They're not even close.

WT*! Did you call the FDGDM (Federal Department of Gun Diagram Mats? How much? Where did you order?

 

[2A2Dend]

Ordered from a guy on eBay. It was $12.50

Thanks, OP! The interweb version would have appealed to me, so thanks for the heads up!

 

[Larrytpdx]

Thanks for saving me $12.50 Bro!

LOL.....dang, should have kept quiet. Yup, I got burned. Not worth returning IMO.
I planned on using it for a mouse pad when not in use anyway.

Hey,........check out my new mouse pad up above!!

You must have one big freakin' desk!

I do. It's over 100 years old. Come out of an old ranger station. Solid oak.
The TEKMAT, is almost as big as full size keyboard

Looks like you received the Hi-Point quality mat.

I just talked to the seller who I bought it from. He told me all TEKMATS look that way.
Heads up.......Don't waste your money buying their product. I ate one for NWFA

Is there also a big crease down the middle from being folded? I would be more upset about that. Poor packaging by the seller.

I just use dog training pee pads.

$12 for a box of 100 large ones and I fold them and clean 3-4 pistols or 2-3 rifles on each one before I toss it.

Thanks for the warning about those pads - I'll take your word for it over a video or description online...

After awhile my mats look like this anyhow...



They seem to have a glaze on them...

Wondering if you got a knockoff or a very old and faded one. Might be worth getting hold of the company and see what they say. <broken link removed>

That was kind of my thought - maybe an illegal copy of the real deal.

That was my thought.

I sent an email to TEKMAT in reference to the situation. ALL relevant info of the seller, and images of the product I received. Lets find out.

I need to get a good cleaning mat. Anyone have one they recommend?

 

[Velzey]

I have the black .250 thick neoprene standard mats covering my bench top.
I hate the fact that they are black.
All the small parts just blend right in.

I started using this mat for just simple cleanings. And I really like it. It's light colored (for now) and the formed compartments are very handy.

I use a Ruger gun mat, but also cover it with a folded up portion of a terrycloth towel. I can then wash or throw away the towel when it gets to the point that I don't want to use it any more. Luckily, I have a pretty good supply of old towels and such for rags.
