If your gun costs more than $1000 you rifle case should cost more than $30
I have stockpiles of rifle case and holsters that I have acquired over the years but after witnessing several bad incidents with several friends I have been slowly acquiring better rifle cases than what I previously have used. Uncle Mikes’ and Bulldog make some nice, inexpensive soft assault rifle cases but that can be a problem these days. Sometimes you want something that doesn’t scream gun and some of my friends found out the hard way. If you look like you’re transporting a firearm, you open yourself up to the paranoid society and also to theft. In recent years there have been thefts of firearms from vendors that were bringing guns to and from gun shows and they stopped in at a restaurant and somebody did a smash and grab when they were chowing down.
Many AR15 style rifles have tactical optics on them that cost almost as much as the guns do. Why not find a tactical gun case like the Elite Survival Cover Operations case that is low profile and can securely strap your optics and firearm down. It also can carry magazines, rifle or pistol, or some other molle type system in a separately padded compartment. Even for law enforcement being low profile with your firearms is a way to be professional and make sure the public doesn’t think you’re responding to a bank robbery in progress. A decent tactical rifle case like this will most likely cost you in the $100 price range, these are made in the USA can be had with free shipping at Rogue Elite.
