    Need a new pistol box for the range

    I know I should have changed long ago but I've been using my Dad's pistol case forever. It's a touch over 65 years old so it's starting to look it. Had a spotting scope installed on the fold out cover and pull out trays for your pistols and small pull out trays for your small tools etc.

    Still has various decals and such that my Dad had put on it many years past.

    I love the functionality of it but it's time for to retire it to the gun cabinet and so I need suggestions from our members. I don't necessarily need the same thing since I'm pretty sure they are more compact now but what is everyone using?

    Decided to restore my Dad's box after seeing anything that I wanted was 500.00. I think he would have been pleased.

        I go to the range to shoot not setup shop so I use an Igloo with leftover foam pull aparts from Pelican cases. Waterproof, dust/dirt proof, drop proof, handguns never get hot or cold, easy to wash out/off, built-in handle and no one knows whats inside when it's on the back seat.

        A QD camera mount attached to one of the curved down sides lets you mount a spotting scope. The mounts are super small, they look like part of the case. Depending on what size you get you can fit the handguns lengthwise or widthwise and parallel.

        There are no drawers for tools but then I don't fix guns at the range either. A few basics under a layer of foam at the bottom along with a tiny bottle of gun cleaner and a cleaning rod and cloth and good to go.

        Don't worry, it will never pass...How in the hell did that pass?

        Think past your gun, it's the last resort, the first is your brain.

        Defense is a losing proposition when time is on the side of the opponent. In the history of humanity, no defense has ever won against an enemy with time on their side.
