Gun cases?

Ok so I'm new to airsoft but I have heard it before. Keep your guns concealed. It makes a lot of sense of course so now I'm looking for a way to transport my M-4.

What I'd prefer and wanna get at some point is hard shell cases for my guns. For now I just have an M-4 but I might be grabbing an M-16 this week and I'd say these two guns can fit two common case profiles being shorter and longer.

So does anyone know of any good companies that make such cases and who distributes them in Canada or specifically in BC?

If you don't need the "Double gun case", get this one http://www.canadiantire.ca/AST/brows...e%252BCase.jsp

15$, buy 2 if you have 2 guns

One thing I dislike, the foam is really cheap. I mean, my metal sling attachment point tore thru it. Worth the 15$ anyway

The Flambeau ones are good. But for transport, I prefer a soft case. Ehobby has a good selection http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/combat-ge...ses/index.html

I bought the double a while back, and I couldn't get it to fit in the trunk of my car (Sunfire).
Anyone have issues fitting the single? Is it much shorter than the double? Know it won't fit both my MP5A4 and my M4, but I'm okay with that if it'll fit just 1 if it'll fit in the trunk (Civic now).

Hmm. That looks like a start. Actually though I was thinking a case like you see detonation controls in and such. Just kinda a style I prefer and they get used for guns and rockets and detonators and computers and all sorts of things so they don't really scream "I got a gun in me!"

Alright so I did some searching and found some great options. Seems a company called Pelican cases makes gun cases for the US army and will sell to civilians so you know they are good. A quick look through their site shows they have some M-4 specific cases for $340-380 each but I noticed they have similar sized cases made for general use that are half the price.

I'm looking at this one for my M-4 and wondering if anyone could give me a definite overall length on n M-16 and what length barrel is standard for an M-16 and if there even are mock suppressors that actually sleeve over a barrel so you can have the look of a suppressor while having a long barrel without it having to be that much longer because of the suppressor.

Yeah it fit with the seat folded down, but I was hoping it would fit without having to.

If a Pelican case is really want you want then just goto your local hunting store, gun shop, tactical store, etc. and most will stock these.

An M16 is exactly 1 meter long. Regarding suppressors, you can get any type you want. Screw on, quick detatch, sleeve onto flash hider, etc. and of various lengths. You just have to look but importing suppressors into Canada can be iffy. Customs seizes them at times. A lot of people do hide longer inner barrels inside suppressors. I don't like the practice myself.

I don't know why you just don't google all of this man.

You probably don't want to know. I would say 500-600 for all 3 cases maybe more if he got the foam on the others.

lol the 1750 rifle case is like 200$ and the small cases run about 200$+ I was looking into one for my camera gear, and decided a bag would be cheaper.
