multi barrel fitted case?
« on: May 09, 2010, 08:41:11 PM »
I'm thinking of making up a hard case for my Handi with maybe 4 barrels. The hard case is easy to find, just looking for ideas for the interior. I'm thinking of a shorter type case, one that doesn't look so obviously a gun case. Anyone seen or have pictures of something like that? I know a lot of us have a gun with several accessory barrels, how do you pack them around? I was even considering a guitar case or other instrument case with a custom interior, but it has to be sturdy and lockable for checking thru TSA. One of the barrels will be a 28" shotgun barrel, the rest shorter rifle barrels.

That sounds like a good idea. i would say for interior foam padding and you could cut it away so the receiver and barrels would slid in. the guitar case would be a great disguise. It reminds me of the movie once upon a time in mexico.

I have been toying with the idea of fitting a toolbox with foam for my receiver and barrels. That way it just looks like I am carrying tools to and fro.
Have lights? Thank a Lineman!

I was thinking of doing a case with a cloth roll out that the barrels would slide in, kinda like a knive roll.
