Will keep my eye open for one. Have never really seen one for sale, but then again, haven't really looked that hard.

They pop up every so often... I've bought a couple of them in the past.

Having been a customer of Jeff's Outfitters for many years, and owning a few of his cases, I concur with Mr. Dawe's opinion of Jeff. The comment about dealing with overseas suppliers, who are not in direct contact with the eventual users of the products, makes the situation that Chris has hard to remedy. Obviously, Chris's customer is one of those rare birds that recognized Chris's dilemma and accepts that in life, there are risks.

Default Trunk Style Case

Got my toe under case from Jeff’s and am very pleased. My Emmebi and Jeff’s are the only cases of this type that I have. The Emmebi leather is a flawless very smooth light tan leather. The leather on Jeff’s case is flawless to me and a smooth very very light burgundy (one of my favorite colors). Comparing the leather quality on them is almost like comparing the leather in a Ferrari to the leather in my Infiniti (Emmebi being the Ferrari). No one in my opinion does art, fabric or leather like the Italians. I am very happy with the leather in my Infiniti and also on Jeff’s case. The interior felt of Jeff’s case appears to be a nice green felt. The felt in the Emmebi appears to be more tightly woven in a different shade of green. The Emmebi has two exterior locks and Jeff’s has one lock. The attachments seem to be securely fastened. As far as quality construction, I do not know. Only time will tell. I would try to take my time to find an Emmebi repro for a Winchester repro gun (I missed one in this forum because of a slow trigger finger). Cases for other guns that I cannot find originals will be cased in Jeff’s and my other hard & soft cases for now. I’m ordering one more now and possibly more later. Will try to post photos next week. Thanks to all and hope my subjective opinion helps. Bob Hardison

I may have a couple of Parker Reproduction cases in storage. Let me know if anyone is interested and I'll go through the storage locker and check. If I remember correctly they are the smaller gauge cases.

Bob,
Nice case indeed. What is the overall dimension from end to end of compartment where receiver/buttstock would fit? Reason I ask is that I may order one for a Ithaca 20 ga. 4E, and it has a lop of 15", so I wasn't sure if this would fit or not. Thanks, and nice pictures. All leather straps seem to be of decent thickness too.
