    That punk pulled a Glock 7 on me. You know what that is? It's a porcelain gun made in Germany. Dosen't show up on your airport X-ray machines, here, and it cost more than you make in a month.

    Pelican 1470. It has built in locks. It holds four comfortably, but I've fit five in there when I puzzle them around.

    Shop the full line of Pelican Cases at low online prices. The Pelican Case is designed to be the most rugged, waterproof, shock absorbent cases on the market today.

      I bought the 1495 for my laptop, but I believe its teh same case(just different internals). It gets a little heavy after a while, but you can't beat the quality.

        I recently picked up an 1170 which will fit a full size pistol and couple mags and box of ammo to use when I fly. I previously had borrowed a 1400 case for a flight, but it was much larger then I needed to took up to much room in my checked bag. The 1400 would easily 3 or 4 full size pistols though if you layered them.

            I have a 1430 that I've been pondering how to set up to hold pistols... I think with some planning you can stand pistols up vertically and get 3-4 in there plus space for magazines... I think the GunCruzer pistol 5-pack is based on the Pelican 14xx case, but I'm not positive.

            I have another 1430 that I've used in the past to fly with my camera equipment.

            edit: I must be losing it. I have the 1450... not sure where I pulled xx30 from.

                I have this case and the cylinder locks on it are awesome. Kill 2 birds with one stone it being a lockable and excellent quality case. It can easily hold 2 pistols. I have my G21 in it with 5 mags but I was being super conservative with the foam spacing. I'll try to snap some pics later.

                  pictures would be cool. i sort of like how the GunCruzer places the pistols vertically though, which allows you to fit a lot more of them into the case, but seeing various layouts would be neat.

                  i figure i already have a 1450 with pick and pluck foam sitting here, so i will try to figure something out someday.

                    Quick and dirty pics. 21SF on the left. I didn't cut anything out for the desiccant, I just lay it on top of the foam; looking at it I need to recharge it. I just placed my G19 on the right just to show that it can easily hold 2 pistols, maybe even 3.

                              I have a Pelican 1495. It holds 3 guns with mags. I fly with it often. It can be padlocked also has a built in combo lock. I get a discount at the Pelican factory and this company has better prices than my discount.
