Not as precise or flexible as expected but still better than cutting foam
I ordered this for my older (2022) Pelican 1700 case (fixed side handle, wheels toward center, no handle between wheels) which contains a 16" AR-15. The foam fit fine but the grid is cut for the newer version with the wheel arches further out. I just had to dremel out the two indentations about 1.25" further inward to fit over my wheel arches. The grid fits snugly. At first it seems barely too long but it will squeeze in. BTW, the dimensions on the Magpul site are wrong by a lot. It will fit old and new 1700s.
I also ordered a couple expansion kits just in case plus I have a 1720 case to organize. When configured, everything fit sung and secure but I had to make some modifications for the charging handle, scope, and tripod. These 3 components dug into the grid and I didn't like putting that much pressure on them. The foam is closed cell but it's still easily damaged with pressure points. So I had to cut out the grid under them.
I have a very slender Troy rail. So I was very surprised that it would not fit sung between two blocks they way it's shown in product photos. I ended up with a huge gap. You would think this would be a basic need. I wish the distances were more granular and/or it fit the most basic and standard of AR dimensions like magazines.
