Heavy duty nylon lariat rope covered with leather for handles. Two leather straps secured with brass buckles to close the flap. It has served me well.
That quail on the flap is a wonderful touch!

Beautiful case Phil. I do like cases that open all the way down so the gun doesn't rub anywhere sliding in and out.

I picked up a lovely 2 gun trunk case from a member here and it’s my go to road trip case as I usually take 2 guns on trips. I take a modern canvas case to use while I’m hunting. The trunk case provides more protection on the road and seems to pack more efficiently.
