How much for a gun case?
As many of the choses we make when using firearms and the gear that we want to use with them, we have to ask ourselves “for what?” purpose are we using it. If you are toting a Mini 14 around with a $180 Leupold rifle scope, you may not need a $1000 hard case with pistol magazine and handgun cutouts. None of you are going to be deployed to Afghanistan with your gear or have it airdropped behind enemy lines, so there’s no need to worry about that level of violence occuring when moving your rifle around. SKB gun cases are nice, but that may be for somebody else.
You really can’t go wrong with using Uncle Mike’s gun cases, or their holsters. I wouldn’t say these are cheap products at all, some of them are priced very well and will hold up for most intended purposes. The nylon holsters are very practical if used securely with a good gun belt and their gun cases are also very inexpensive for every day use. They are outstanding to have for any semi-auto carbine because the magazine pouches will really help keep your Pmags or AK magazines organized. I strongly recommend spending $25-$30 on a soft case for every gun that you won, and keep your sight in tools or magazines in the cases.
