Fantastic case for the price,
There have been several negative reviews of this case surrounding it’s strength. I think those reviews need to be tempered with a little reality. If anyone orders a $15 case and really expects it to be comparable to a $75-$100 Pelican case, they need to seriously rethink their shopping strategy. This is a $15 case and is a fantastic product for that price. Would I trust it as a standalone piece of luggage on an airliner? Maybe not, but I’ve never seen a $15 case that would meet anything near that criteria. I just wanted the ability to store several items, both gun and non-gun, that made them both more resistant to damage than a soft side case, and be easy to transport. I’ve been to many gun shows that have offered countless cases that were inferior to this one, at the same or even higher prices. I’ve bought more than one of these cases because I was so satisfied with the first, and I intend to buy even more of them. They offer good, sturdy storage without breaking the bank. The plastic won’t support an elephant, but is plenty strong enough for typical storage, and I feel perfectly safe tossing them into a closet or storage room with mutiples of other items on top of them. I can stand on top of mine (carefully) without damaging it and I’m on the not so pretty side of 200 pounds. It bends and flexes, but it doesn’t break, and it returns immediately to it’s original shape when I step off.
Another reviewer mentioned that these appear identical to another reel (as in rod and reel) case. He is correct. Aside from the color and some words molded into the cover, these cases are totally identical, except this one is cheaper. A major advantage of three pieces of foam in this case, besides allowing two levels of storage, is that one of the pieces of foam has hundreds of tiny, pre-perforated sections in it. You just tear out whatever pieces you want to create a custom ‘mold’ for whatever item you want to store, whether it be a gun or some other item. Much easier and neater than trying to cut out special shapes on your own.
I used Pelican cases many times to transport equipment during my military career and they were great, but those cases would be serious overkill for my personal storage needs. If you want the ultimate in protection or are concerned with possible severe treatement like you might get with some airline baggage handlers, then $15 cases really aren’t where you should be looking. But if you want simple, durable, reliable and inexpensive storage for your guns or anything else, then you can’t do any better in this price range than these cases.

|Super value, good product,
I was looking for an inexpensive case to hold a paintball marker of mine, and ran across this. It isn’t a Pelican like what I have for some other stuff, but in a way that’s good because I couldn’t afford the appropriately-sized Pelican case.
This isn’t meant to shield valuables from heavy damage, that’s what a Pelican would do, but you’d pay 10x the price. This will be excellent for carrying anything which would fit.. netbooks, electronics, firearms, etc, on a daily basis. It isn’t waterproof.
DETAILS:
It’s a sturdy ABS-style plastic, with actual hinges for the clips and the case itself. It’ll withstand average forces, and light impacts. It comes with 3 layers of foam: 2 outer layers of eggshell-style foam, and the inner layer which has perforated sections which you can tear out as needed.
DIMENSIONS:
I didn’t see dimensions in the description, which would’ve been beneficial, but here they are.
The label says (presuming outside measurements): 16.75″ x 14″ x 6″
My actual measurements (inside): 16″ x 10″ x 6″
Inside measurements will always be a little less as seen above. This will fit a paintball marker and barrel nicely.
Not much else to say.. it’s a case, it was $20 shipped, and it’ll keep my paintball marker safe during transport. Well worth the money.

|Plano Pistol (Reel?) Case,
The construction is everything you would expect from Plano, excellent hinges and rigidity. Plano makes one other case very similar to this one, but I have to wonder why anyone would buy it other than lack of research.
Plano’s reel case sports the exact dimensions as this case. In fact, they appear to be carbon copies of one another with the exceptions that it is tan instead of black and the foam is two-piece instead of three. I find this 2nd cavity quite useful for storing spare spools and spinning reel handles while not in use.
