I bought mine about 8 years ago but have never really used it that much. I have not yet gotten the spotting scope or the mount for one reason and the second reason was it was pretty heavy when you put 5 guns in it with mags. Don't even think about adding the ammo to the box.
The more popular (I think) model would have been the smaller, thinner box, but since I always think bigger is better, I got the 5 gun. It is heavy.

I bought my five-gun box a half a lifetime ago, when I was young and tough, and wouldn't dare to look less than fully confident and competent. (Wow, that was some effort. Carried the whole mess up to the third story to the range, for two practices and one match EVERY WEEK.

Later, however, I carried a range-bag with the ammo and chrony in the other hand, (just for the sake of balance, you understand .)

So now, I shoot at a range where I can park the truck right up at the benches so I don't have to carry that load too far. It's amazing how you work these things out, after forty years of contemplation and practice.

It's only experience, honest. AGE has nothing to do with it.

[quote=itsmyright;782714]Saw this at a range the other day. Does anyone know where to get one or has anyone ever built one? I asked the older gentleman who owned it, and he said that the company only makes holsters now. I don't recall the company name. T bohis specific box holds five pistols/revolvers. I particularly like the attached spotting scope mounted on the top.[/ has QUOTE]

I can only assume you don't shoot much Bullseye!

My guess, 80+% still use the Gun-Ho style. I switched to a range bag on a converted baby stroller after a couple of shoulder surgeries. Never went back after I sold off the three boxes I had.
