I run a hard case when visiting sites, as I take a couple of different rifs, I haven’t bothered cutting foam to allow one case to be used for several pewpews

I got a 5.11 Cams which I put Shadow Foam into

Used it once

Its just too damn big ?

This is my Peli Case, Shadow Foam inside and will carry 2 rifles and my pistol quite easily.

I don't see the reasoning behind your logic! What's need got to do with it? This is Airsoft, it's ALL about want! 

I know... as I typed it I looked at my pews and thought I don't need this big a collection either, the difference in my mind is... I can look at & enjoy my pews but a gun case is really a thing to carry them 10 feet from my front door to the boot of my car, I'll end up getting one eventually but it's low on my list of airsoft priorities (for now).

One of these would be nice...

Ooh, now that is nice. 

I'm sort of lucky that i only have 4 pews, for now, and dont really have anywhere to keep them in the house so putting thw3m in cases where i can then stash them out of the way makes sense. 

I do, as of Saturday, have a spare bedroom so I think that might become 'The Gun Room' with them on display. Then i can add more. ?

I highly recommend grid mesh for your gun wall

Ill be rereading the display your guns thread for some inspiration.

I keep eyeing up the Hardigg cases on eBay 

The ones that will hold like 10-12 AR’s ?

The YouTuber Whistlin Diesel has bloody hundreds of them for display, and at like £250 a pop

Thats a lot of spendy!

I lucked out with my case - £50 from someone who was just about to put it in a skip...

Glad I've got it though, makes it easy to carry my rifles and I can sling it in the boot of the car without worrying. Plus it has doubled up as a nice table on events!

Funnily enough i got my first one off Facebook marketplace for £30 because it had been left ourside and was a bit wet and dirty. Second one was £58 off ebay but £20 postage. Still a bit of a bargain though.

Feck it... just ordered one from BBguns4less.

Which one?

 

[gavinkempsell]

the XL for £99 odd, only problem was picking the colour.

Wish I'd bought the two from HuttArmouries when I saw them in the classifieds.

Nice. Looking forward to your layout pics. ?

 

[gavinkempsell]

must admit I had my L85A3 case out last night to 'practice' lol. Spent a good bit of time looking for a deeper case but they seem to be a fairly standard 5" internal depth.

 

[Pseudotectonic]

The only thing that jumps out at me looking at these photos is you are supposed to leave a certain thickness of foam around each and every item, and also between them (also between layers), which can be as little as ~1 cm for lighter items to at least ~5 cm for bigger items, if you don't leave enough foam around the outer edges or have guns touching each other there won't be enough foam thickness to cushion an impact, in theory

Nice looking case, very similar to a large Plano case I use (and love). It looks like the latches may be better on the Nuprol. Good luck.
