5.11 tactical 42" gun case - 5.11 42in Shotgun Case

This is my first 5.11 gun case and I was amazed with the quality. The firearm is protected on all sides and ends with thick, dense padding. It's easily the best protection that I have seen in a gun case. I bought this for my Benelli M4 shotgun and it fits like a glove. The case is tall enough so that if I decide to add a sight to the shot gun, the case will accommodate it. The case does have the hard to find velcro tie down straps that so many cases don't include. The case has 4 different tie down straps so that it could hold 2 firearms, if they don't have scopes or large protruding magazines on them. If your firearm has a large magazine, or a scope or red dot sight on it, you will probably be limited to just one gun per case. The velcro tie down straps slide into a series of loops sewn into the case. It is possible to move the strap in a higher or lower loop to adjust where the tie down holds the gun, but they are not adjustable side to side to allow you to move the tie down to find the best place on your gun to fasten it down. They should be adjustable so that you can move them from side to side. On the plus side, the case does have two cinching straps that run around the center of the case so that when everything is loaded, you can cinch them down to securely hold the case contents in their place.
The case already has several storage compartments that are built in, but another big plus is the molle system which allows you to add additional pouches/cases to the inside and outside of your gun case for additional storage. This is easily the best gun case that I have seen. I liked it so much that I bought a second one for my AR rifle.
Pros: Excellent padding and gun protection
Cons: gun tie downs need to be adjustable
