Gun cases?

[m102404]

This isn't really a case...but I was at Bass Pro and they had a Plano (guys that make a lot of fishing tackle boxes) "foot locker" on sale for $35. It has 5 snapping latches...pretty beefy. And 3 lock points (reg padlocks work). It has 2 small wheels...they're small and don't stick out which is nice....but it'd roll smoother with bigger wheels. No handle per se...but there's handholds to grab to lift it.

Strong enough to sit on the corners...it'll flex if you sit on the middle. It's nice to sit

It's big enough I can put the following into it...it fits my trunk perfectly.
- Helmet
- 2 goggles
- kneepads
- BDU's
- Wasatch loaded with mags for the primary gun
- Small Galil, stock collapsed - in small soft case
- PTW CQBR in soft case
- Big Gym Bag that holds:
-- holster/mag pouch
-- sling
-- 3-4 grenades
-- propane can + adaptor
-- extra batteries
-- ~10 mags for alternate gun
-- BBs/loader
-- radio/headset
-- gloves/shemag/etc
-- misc stuff that I don't even know that's in there.

It's not compact by any means...but it fits everything I need to go to a game. I can get to a place, gear up, stash my civies away tidy, sit on my box waiting for the start of thing...then at the end, pack it all up, toss in my scrubby BDUs and toss it in the trunk.

I've been testing it out the last couple of games/events...tossing it, dropping it while it's full, dragging it accross parking lots and gravel areas, etc... It's holding up well.

My only regret is that I didn't buy two more of them at the time.

Please provide links where I can get a Pelican 1750 for $200? Seriously, I'll buy that for that price.

Great stuff. I think I'm gonna go for a pelican case or two just cause I know I'll have them twenty years from now.

Additional question though is would a 1700 be able to fit two standard sized M-4s? Like if you have their mag wells almost touching. Or would the same with M-16s and the 1720 work?

As odd as it might be I'm mainly concerned with casing the gun since I have motor sports connections which get me free gear bags and I'm gonna grab a mid size one to throw in tactical vests and helmets and gloves and such.

The websites contain full measurements,
measure the rough size of what the 2 m4/m16's will take up,
add 1 1/2 inches to 2 inches and then pick your case
