Swiss Link British OD Padded Gun Case Bed Roll Issued

The British OD Padded Gun Case and Bed Roll is genuine British military surplus. Issued condition means it saw real service and may carry wear, markings, stamps, or repairs from that use. Rolled out flat, the heavy-duty canvas case holds up to four 36-inch firearms in 1-inch thick padding across a 74 by 36 inch surface. It also functions as a padded shooting mat or an improvised sleeping surface in the field.

Proven Canvas Construction

The case is built from heavy-duty canvas with 1-inch thick padding throughout. That padding thickness matters on a shooting mat: it absorbs ground irregularities and reduces shooter fatigue during extended prone sessions. The same padding that protects firearms in transit gives the mat enough cushion to be genuinely useful as a field sleeping surface when a dedicated sleeping pad is not available.

Three Locking Belts Keep Gear Secure

Three outer locking belts cinch the rolled case closed and hold firearms or other contents firmly during transport, so nothing shifts or rattles loose in a truck bed or cargo hold. A 7 by 7-inch clear ID window on the exterior lets you label the case for quick identification without opening it, which matters when multiple cases are stacked or stored together.

Rolls Compact for Storage and Transport

When rolled, the case measures 36 by 17 by 3 inches, a footprint that fits across a truck cab floor, behind a rear seat, or in a cargo area without consuming the space a rigid case would. That packability is the practical payoff of the roll format: the same item that opens to a 74-inch work surface stows in a fraction of that volume.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This case suits hunters, long-range shooters, and military collectors who need a compact, padded carrier for up to four rifles or shotguns with 36-inch barrels, and who value the authenticity and durability of genuine British surplus. It also works as a field shooting mat or an improvised padded sleeping surface for camping and overlanding.

The case does not fit firearms longer than 36 inches when laid flat. Each piece is Issued surplus, so individual wear, stamps, and field repairs are inherent to this product, not defects; buyers who require a uniform or unmarked appearance should choose a different case. Surplus lots are finite and may not be restocked once sold through.

Common Questions

What does "Issued" condition mean for this case?

Issued means the British OD Padded Gun Case and Bed Roll is genuine military surplus that was fielded and used by British troops. Each piece may show wear, stamps, markings, or field repairs from that service. These are expected characteristics of Issued surplus. For collectors, they are part of the item's authenticity.

How many firearms does the case hold, and what is the maximum length?

The British OD Padded Gun Case holds up to four firearms with barrels up to 36 inches in length when the case is rolled out flat. The padded interior is 74 inches long and 36 inches wide, with a depth of 1.5 inches, giving each firearm its own padded lane.

Can this be used as a shooting mat or sleeping pad?

Yes. The 1-inch padding and 74 by 36 inch open surface make the British OD Padded Gun Case a functional prone shooting mat. It can also serve as an improvised padded sleeping surface in the field when a dedicated sleeping pad is not available, though it is not a purpose-built sleeping pad.

How compact does it pack down?

When rolled and secured with its three locking belts, the British OD Padded Gun Case measures 36 by 17 by 3 inches. That rolled size fits across a truck cab floor, behind a rear seat, or in a cargo area without taking up the footprint a rigid gun case would require.
