As a result of some new additions to my gear bag, I need a case to transport my marker in. I have always been a big fan of those hard cases with the "egg carton" foam in them. I see them online, and they are either WAY TO BIG or WAY OVER PRICED. Anyone have any experience purchasing a case? I have a stock on my tac one with extended fore grips, I keep he barrel in its own foam case. Anyone have any suggestions?

try a sporting goods store, with hunting stuff, or if there's walmart in canada, ive seen some cheap gun bag/cases there as well

not sure what size you'd want tho, but if u do get a large case, u might be able to fit a couple guns in.

I like pelican cases. They are large, and they are expensive. I can throw it in a lake, and it is water tight. I can also drive my truck over it without it damaging the markers inside.

When it comes to cases you get what you pay for.

yes, but it keeps the rain out. It also gives me a place to sit ( I am no little person)

Heres the link for you too BigEvil. Little late since TB3

I have two of these. Just layer with some foam or use bath towels. The wheels work good also

All my Mags are set up with a warp. With the barrel on, no tank I can get three guns plus some STUFF in. When I get to the field all I have to do is slide a tank on the tail, hook the quick connect and put some paint in the revie and walk to the chrony. If you unscrew the barrel you get MORE room for more STUFF. :clap:

Plus it doubles as a portable[one man party] cooler on wheels. :ninja: Back in the day the portable party cooler took two to carry. :argh:

I have a long rifle and pistol hard case also for the pump gun, Micro Ca and Sixpack.

Good luck

Go to Lowes or Home Depot. Look in their toolbox sections. Both of them carry a "engineer's toolcase" which is an aluminum briefcase with egg crate foam.

Less than 30 dollars, and will protect your gun even if it does get thrown off the back of your truck.
