Solid, heavy-duty rifle case - SKB Cases 4909-5 Convolute Foam Single Rifle Case

This is a solid, sturdy, and heavy rifle case. All components seem to be top quality. The hinges seems sturdy, and the four closures clamp down with authority and have metal reinforced holes for attaching small travel locks. The interior foam also seems very heavy-duty. This case has a very positive lock-up and is supposed to be waterproof and dust-proof by virtue of a gasket around the lid. Compared to my trusty old Gun Guard plastic/aluminum gun case from thirty years ago as my standard, this case is way sturdier and heavy-duty. I do not take my rifle on the airlines, so I am sure that the heavy plastic construction will last and protect my rifle in all foreseeable circumstances. If I was an air traveler, I might have chosen another material, perhaps aluminum. The case has a lifetime warranty. The only shortcoming that I have noticed is that the lid only opens 90 degrees on its hinges. My old case opens 180 degrees, which comes in handy at the rifle range, in that I can lay two rifles down on it when fully open, one rifle on either side. I would have only deducted a half point for this if I had the choice. It's a little pricey, too, but I think in-line with the competition. Overall, this is the heaviest-duty rifle case I have ever owned in 40 years, and I am very pleased with it.
