I would also recommend both. The trunk case for display and storage in the gun room but the LOM for transporting to and from hunts or shoots. I would never recommend storing a nice double in a closed LOM for long periods of time for the simple fact that a lot of the old LOMs have cotton cloth lining and can hold moisture and promote rust.

In reality, this is the type of case most original GH-Grade purchasers would have gone for --

My GH-Grade two-barrel set came in this case --

Hey Dave, Mine actually came with the same case for one barrel but it was so rotten it was falling apart, maybe I'll find a replacement.
