About a year ago I decided to upgrade the pistol rug I was using to carry my Glock 19 to and from the range. At the time GORUCK was just offering their new line of firearms gear as pre-order. I ordered two of their pistol rugs in black (The only available color). After a few months of waiting I received my pistol rug and can say it is/was worth the wait. I’ve been a fan of GORUCK products for years since I got my GR1. GORUCK products are built rock solid and bomb proof and the pistol rug is no exception.

The pistol rug is constructed of 1000D CORDURA and the outside dimensions are 10.50″W x 8.00″H x 2.75″D per, with a YKK zipper used per the GORUCK website. The interior is lined with Velcro so that you can attach pouches or patches. GORUCK sells a full line of attachable pouches for the pistol rug. I checked around my house and as any other gear hound found I already owned a collection that I could use. On the interior I placed a 5.11 double pistol magazine pouch, flashlight holder, and a Maxpedition accessory loop.
I really like the size and quality of this pistol rug and have it set up as a grab and go set up. It fits well into a backpack for carrying to and from the car or if you have to grab your pack and move quickly. I’ve owned a number of pistol rugs over the years and have to say that this is the best and highest quality one I’ve owned to date.
