I was looking for the Leapers DC Rifle case in 38 inch
http://www.leapers.com/pages/gun_cases/utg.htm

Opticsplanet has them for 30$ shipped but no stock.
Cheaper than dirt is about 40$+12 ship.. bit too much for me

So far I found this

then the bulldog one http://www.northwestshootersupply.com/bulldogextremeassualtriflecase35inchodgreen-2.aspx

I guess either one would do.



anyone else know where to find them? or can rec a bag similar and price wise?
thanks

Mike

I usually pick up a General type rifle case at the gunshow (Ventura) for $15. The size is 42X10 scoped rifle case. It has a tag with an animal head and Sacramento Ca.

Ya, I went to the vallejo show but didnt get one for my stag. I did get one for my savage though, it was about 15$ or so. ok quality.. will get the job done. But I was looking for something like that leapers one. 5 side pockets for mags.

The gun show cases are cheap because that's what they are.

I've got several for my C&R stuff. Cheap stitching and cheap zippers. Plus, most of the zippers aren't covered on the inside, so your gun will rub against the zipper. Not good if the zipper teeth are metal and your crown/muzzle is rubbing against it in transport.

Look into a Tac-Force bag. I have had mine for well over 3 years now and others have reported similar experiences.

They are extremely well made and you honestly will not find anything comparable for less than $200. Here are a few pictures I took awhile back showing mine. The logo is my attempt at making it a bit more discreet.

This one shows the removable side foam, some people insert a sheet of hard plastic into it to make the case a semi-hard case.
