Best gun cases for the buck?

Yes, we realize that not everyone looking for an AR15 is  going to want to pick up an LWRC M6A2 so we don’t always stock the most expensive items out there.  There is something to be said for getting what you paid for but not everything has to be expensive.  There are many products that are just what you need and you don’t need all of the added features or added cost.  The  only bad thing about shopping for products like this is they tend to be foreign made products and it’s rare to find good products in a low price range that are Made in the USA.   We stock a lot of the higher end  products especially the tactical nylon gear like the Elite Survival Systems products.

We realize that Uncle Mike’s makes some very nice products but not everything is going to work for you.  One of our top selling online sales for nylon gun cases and gun bags are the Bulldog gun cases which are always very well priced.  These gun cases can help protect your handguns or rifles to and from the firing range, in your closet or just for storing in your gun safe.  There are always varying degrees of rifle case protection and not everyone needs to spend $80-$110 on a padded rifle case.  They do make some very inexpensive assault rifle cases for under $40.  Check them out if you are on a budget.

Transporting the 1927 Thompson

I recently attended a World War II gun club event and had a lot of fun being there.    I have always know what I liked from the WWII era, but I never really jumped on the collectors bandwagon because most of the guns are in my humble opinion, collectors items.    Many of the bolt action rifles that were used during the war are chambered in .303, 8mm and 30/06 and still have a place in the hunting community, but for home defense or modern combat, those calibers are not very common and there aren’t very many gun chambered in them anymore.   Finding ammunition is very hard and with todays inflated prices, it’s very much a collector thing.

The M1 Garand is a great and powerful for it’s time, but the function of it is very dated.   Having 8rds of 30/06 in a semi auto that is capable of hitting targets out to 600yds easily is far more than what the average deer hunter is going to need.   The M1 Carbine would probable be my favorite if the caliber wasn’t so hard to get and there were more bullet designs that could be applied for defensive purposes.   The M1 Carbine is more powerful than .357 magnum, but the gun is designed for FMJ and would urge against them for home defense.   My favorite is still the Thompson 1927 which can be toted around in gun cases that look like a violin case and will get a lot of laughs when you show up at the range.   The 45acp gun is very reliable and will shoot many defensive rounds.   The 45acp you get out of this gun is a powerful close range weapon.
