Gun Cases /Leather or Canvas

[Russ Jackson]

At the moment ,I only own a couple of Break down Gun Cases , They are Leather ,I am considering buying about five of these ,along with the accoutrements , these are from CSMC and are Canvas Cases listed on Guns International ! Guns International Item # 100123591 ,Sorry I don't have any idea how to put up a link ,if anyone would care to ,I would appreciate it ! There are three items I like about these cases ,First the price ,then mostly the layout of the interior ,and lastly the Rich Color compared to so many of the Leather cases ! I like the leather cases for the outward appearance but most are very bland inside ,I guess my question is ,do any of you Gentlemen use this case and do they hold up as well as the leather cases ?

Here is the link for the gun cases I was telling you about http://www.gunsinternational.com/-410-Bore-SxS-Canvas-Trunk-Case-from-CSMC.cfm?gun_id=100123591 ,Bravo ,I have Finally figured out how to post a Link !!!!

The case looks very similar to my RBL case. The yellow covering on the RBL case is too bright for my taste, but it's an OK case. It isn't a Huey case, that's for sure.

[Russ Jackson]

John ,I agree a little lite in color ,also the leather strapping appears thin ??? I like the interior though and the base price isn't $2000.00 ,I like that also , that is way out my my league for as many guns as I would like to case up !

Russ,
I have an RBLcase and am not impressed!! Try Jeff's Outfitters. I like ther cases a lot.

Hello Bob , I have been looking at Jeffs ,do you like the canvas cases or the leather cases Bob ? They also sell the compact model ,I thought it may be a nice case for the 410 but they don't sell the 410 accoutrements !

[Richard Flanders]

That is the case they used for the RBL for sure. Can't remember much about them but most of these cases like this are about equally flimsy. The nails aren't cobbled inside so they pull and latches fall off, etc. I've had pretty decent luck with cases from Jeffs also. I like their compact toe-under canvas case a lot. It's great for the small gauge guns and really is very compact.

Russ,
I have both all leather and canvas and leather and have not been disapointed. The cases I like the best are the toe under. They are the most compact and are very much like the Parker Repro cases that I fell are the BEST.

I'm in agreement with Richard and Bob; very happy with my toe under case from Jeff's. The cleaning rods are handy and the oil bottles and cleaning gizmos class the whole thing up a bit.

[Russ Jackson]

I like the Toe Under cases also , I am not sure I like the buckle wrapping around the wrists on the other style cases !

I use canvass take down cases exclusively and I own several vintage LOM cases but like the canvass ones better. Boyt makes a great case and I have two that came over on the Mayflower that needed some repair and Boyt refurbished them for free. The Cabellas knock off of the Boyt is too long unless your using a 32 inch gun. Another nice canvass case is from SKB, their about $70 on line.

I have three cases from Jeff's outfitters. His service is great, and if you have a question he is very easy to get on the phone. His cases are top quality, you won't be disapointed.
