Protektor Model Shooting Bag Set with Adjustable Front Rest

This is a premium shooting accessory set manufactured by Protektor Model in Galeton, PA. The set includes a heavy leather rear bunny ear sandbag and an matching leather front bag mounted on a black powder-coated steel tripod rest. Both bags are constructed from top-grain, vegetable-tanned cowhide in a classic natural tan color. The rear bag features tall 'bunny ears' to securely cradle a rifle stock, with a reinforced thick leather base for stability. The front bag is a flatter, wide-profile design secured to the metal rest via integrated leather loops. The front rest itself features a heavy-duty tripod base with an adjustable height screw mechanism, typical of high-quality benchrest equipment. Notable markings include the debossed Protektor Model logo featuring an eagle and the Galeton, PA address. The condition is excellent with a light, even patina on the leather surface. There are minor cosmetic scuffs on the leather consistent with light use, but the stitching remains tight and intact. The metal rest shows no signs of corrosion or significant paint loss. These items represent high-quality American craftsmanship, designed for precision long-range shooting and benchrest target practice.
