Pistol cases
I am looking to get some pistol cases and wanted some suggestions or pics of your setup. Currently I keep them in their original case just in case I sale or trade them. I have about 10 that I put on my never to sale list and would like to put them in a nice case with all their accessories like a pelican or skb case. Any suggestions would be great, I would like them to have customizable foam systems. Thanks

Re: Pistol cases
What is the purpose of the case?
Display?
Long term storage?
Transport to and from range?
I think if we better understood your goal, we could better help as there are so many possibilities.

Re: Pistol cases
Making a custom case like this would be a cool option...

But like said in the above post, what are you specifically looking to do?

Re: Pistol cases
Pelican makes a great case and they also sell the foam inserts if you have an existing case but want to use the customizable foam. I have an Outers case that I replaced the foam in owing to dry rot.

Re: Pistol cases
I run out of room in the OEM cases for accessories and all the extra mags and I was looking for nice storage options. I'm not into display cases yet as most of my guns are stored in different safes. Once I finish my panic room I might look into that. For now I was looking more for the pelican case style setup. I couldn't wait, so I just bought a brand new pelican 1520:

I was looking to see how many I could fit in one case:
I could only fit 3 fullsizes and 8 mag slots, took me 2 hours:
I just put an order in for 10 more cases, 2 desert tan fde, 1 orange, 2 OD green, 1 yellow, 1 silver and 3 black. I have to go vacuum, i made a mess with the foam.Last edited by mike12_nguyen; November 2nd, 2013 at 07:13 PM.

Re: Pistol cases
Not mine, but I like the idea of a rail on the side

Re: Pistol cases
I've come across these in the past year or so and find them quite handy and useful. Portable, lockable but certainly not waterproof or theft proof.. Nothing beats a big 'spensive heavy safe bolted solidly to the ground but I have found wonderful use and utility with these. If you have kids..lock em..otherwise I really really like em.
