Hard Gun Case

Ok having done the Google, tm, every shop I can think of thing I thought ask the experts,
Anyone no where I can get a 60inch hard rifle case??

Best I could find is about 53inch

Plano Pro Max Gun Case

Pelican should do one I would have thought.

Thanks mate I have a few but the blades keep breaking:thumbsup:

yeah - I grabbed my stock books and nup nothing to 60inch

What are you putting in it?

The biggest Pelican (1750) is I think 50" internal. I have the biggest Plano which gives around 53" internal, all too short for u. Before I got the Plano I priced a custom case from a company that specialises in cases for sound equipment for bands. It was nice but too expensive. Best of luck.

haven't seen any plano or pelican case that long

just measured mine, is 52 inches

longest peli on their website is 53 (1750) and plano is 53.25 (pro-max)

Cabelas have a 62 inch "black-powder" case made of alu. And also Aluminum Rifle Case, Hard-Sided Rifle Case and Gun Case. But you're going to get nailed on shipping. Make one out of ply ?

haha, snap Zimmer, we must have been typing at the same time :D

Thanks guys. Yep that pelican 1750 at $1200 is a joke. It's 54 with the stock off I just thought someone might no of something that would do might have to get one made.
It's just to throw in the ute canopy

That one would be ideal I kinda like to support the NZ boys and girls though and would have no idea how to order/ import anyhow.
Thanks

BRADS - WTF are you shooting, a punt gun. I thought gun was long enough, with a 32" barrel the only way it fits is to remove the adjustable butt, easily done though. I think 1750 Pelicans are still around at ~ $800 but that is still expensive. If all you want to do is chuck it in the back of a ute and assuming there is a canopy for dryness you would be better to make a wooden case. The custom built one I looked at was excellent (except for the price), aluminium but still quite heavy.

Yep that's what I'm thinking.
Least I can get a 60 inch one made to save taking the stock on and off

Ask KG about his 'gun coffins'.

Cut a hole in the short end and add an extension?

If you go down the road of making one yourself from plywood, you will need at least $200 of materials and every second evening for a month. (double that if you're like me, unskilled and and only made a couple before).
