Arcturus Gun Socks

Gun socks are a great, inexpensive option for protecting a long gun from damage during transport or long-term storage, and the version made by Arcturus includes several additional features that make them even more functional and versatile than run-of-the-mill designs.

Measuring 47" in length and 6" in width, the socks are long enough to accommodate all but the very largest of rifles and shotguns, and their fabric is flexible enough to permit use even on guns with protruding pistol grips and accessories and/or optics mounted atop them.

The fabric has also been treated with silicone to help it repel moisture and protect firearms from rust.

Available in green, gray, coyote brown and black. MSRP is $20 (two pack); $35 (four pack).
