Exclamation How can I convert this brief case into a gun case?

Hey All,

So I got this from a buddy and figured I could do something related to airsoft with it. I have 2 pistols (1911,hicappa) and I wanted to try and convert it into a gun case. Has anyone here done this before? Anyone got any suggestions on how I could transform this bad boy? Would I use foam, or straps of some sort?

Put gun in case.

Close case.


Seriously tho I would gut it and start from scratch.

Foam full depth on the bottom custom cut, and contact cement in a sheet of MOLLE on the top so you hang mag pouches and utility pouches better suited than what is there now.

I like the sounds of a molly system in the case.

Does anyone know where I can get gun case style foam?

Wal-mart sells that style foam in the arts and crafts section/bed section "comes in black or white if you can't find it i could buy it and ship it to you!

Thank you sir, this looks like its my one stop shop for foam! I like the pick and pack stuff cause then I can custom size my gun locations

The only problem is that it looks like im going to have to buy a large quantity (spending at least 50-80 dollars) because they only sell by the carton (box). Anywhere I can get this stuff where its not required to be purchased in bulk quantities?
