A Real Bargain... August 22, 2010 Paul Mark Provencher (Morgantown, WV USA) I have some vintage camera lenses that came with really nice leather storage cases. As much I like the dedicated cases, I do not want to spoil them by lugging them around in the car or truck. And in fact one of these cases has a zipper that failed leaving it unsuitable for storing camera lenses on the go.
When I started looking for portable cases to store these lenses when I go on the road, I came upon the Pelican and Otter Box style cases. These are everything they promise - rugged, water and dust proof, and capable of withstanding years of hard abuse. And they're pretty expensive. Now I really want to protect my camera gear, and when I'm traveling under hostile conditions I use Zero Halliburton cases that are the metal version of the Pelican and Otter cases. But for car or truck-based trips where I am not going to be subjecting the gear to rough handling, and a lighter case would be appropriate, enter the Plano Four Pistol Case.
Make no mistake about it - this case is not waterproof. It will keep a casual splash out of the case, but I would not recommend this for heavy wet conditions, like a boat for example. Go with the high-end cases meant for this sort of activity.
The foam lining is not the same grade of foam as the Zero Halliburton. This foam is a lot softer and does not support the same amount of weight. It appears that this foam is not meant to be cut though it does have pre-scored cubes for that purpose. I cut the solid piece of foam and used it for the top layer. The two lenses, both large (300mm and 400mm) soon showed that the foam would not support their combined weight. I got another piece of foam from factory computer packing and made a second layer of foam. This cured the problem and now the lenses stay in their cut-outs and do not shake around when the case is closed. This is the only reason I gave this item a four star rating.
The case itself closes and latches well, is lightweight and reasonably compact. They're large enough for quite a number of items. I use a second one, not cut out, to transport our walkie-talkies, charger bases, and rechargeable battery chargers and power cords.
There is a provision for locking the case, though that's really silly because the hasp could be cut with a razor knife. I like to look at this feature as an additional way to secure the cover and "keep honest people honest" since it really would not prevent a motivated individual from getting into the case.
pistol cases August 18, 2010 Brian W. Demo (Kansas) These things work perfectly for traveling togun shows and such. Can load anywhere from 4 to 7 guns depending on caliber. Recomenond if you show
Excellend DURABLE Poly Pistol Case May 7, 2010 Delta Echo (Atlanta, GA) Very rigid hard poly case for pistols. Easily holds my 4 G22's or my 2 G27's an 3 EAA .357's. Very secure closable latches, can sustain a drop from carry level without popping open.
This is not a computer case--why people think it will be a sturdy laptop or netbook case is beyond me, because it it's not meant to snuggly contain sensative heavy electronic equipment, it's a pistol case. Pistols are three dimensional objects that comform to foam, laptops are flat and slick finished. Don't buy this product as a laptop/netbook case---it's a pistol case.
Three layers of foam make it easy to store magazines on a separate layer from pistols. It's a great to/from range case and excellent storage case.
Plano Case April 30, 2010 Hi-Tek (New york) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Estimated 12x15x5in. thick, good for gadget case or laptop case but it will not 100% protects your laptop
for hard impact, this is not designed to be dropped/rugged used just a temporary protection only.
Plastic used is not hard so dont compare this item to a pelican products. Well for 15 bucks what more u can ask for.
Pros:
-Cheap,Not bad design
-with double egg foam included (Foam alone will cost you $10-15)
-fits all 10-13inch Laptop
Cons:
-Not hard plastic
-Will not 99% protects your device
Not bad for a case, I used this in my electronic gadgets and my testing tools.

Flimsy - at best, no better than a decent soft case April 28, 2010 C. Langan 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Why some reviewers are praising the "sturdiness" of this case is a mystery to me.
This item is illustrated with what looks like a laptop computer in it. While a small laptop might fit inside it, it would be at least as vulnerable to damage by crushing as if it were in a decent soft case. The supposedly "thick" walls consist of apprx. 1.5mm of flexible plastic, and I do mean "flexible". Open this case and twist it by the handles, and it behaves almost like rubber, flexing precipitously along its plastic hinges (the handles themselves feel like they're on the verge of tearing through). Shut it and apply several pounds of pressure from front to back just beneath the handle using the heels of your palms, and the handle literally pops open like a cheap coin purse. The latches stay fastened, but with this degree of overall flexibility, one could almost get into this case without bothering to undo them.
That being said, the case is probably not entirely useless for its advertised purpose: holding guns. After all, guns aren't usually as fragile as laptops. When fully closed and latched, the case does exhibit some (but not much) rigidity. However, if it were $15.01 instead of $14.99, mine would be going back to Amazon with an extra ten bucks for an aluminum replacement. So just a word of caution: anyone who puts anything fragile or especially valuable in this case should understand that all he's doing is disguising it a little, providing it with a rather weak carrying handle, and adding a dustcover and a bit of scratch protection. Serious crush protection is absolutely out of the question.
