We have gotten in three different pistol cases to be able to show some of the options on the market to secure your pistol while traveling. These are the 3 options we have had the pleasure to test and each device offers a distinct advantage depending upon your needs. We like to think of gun cases in regards to need and how you want to travel with your firearm. Each of these cases provide 3 distinct use cases.
Plano Stealth EVA Pistol Case
This soft sided pistol case can work for both quick trips to the gun range as well as storage in your luggage or in your gun safe especially for short trips. This small lightweight, portable case has the durability of a hard case but is not lockable. The Stealth EVA construction provides structure to hold your firearm without any unnecessary extra bulk. This allows you to slide this small case into larger bags and walk in and out of your vehicle without showing your pistol. This case almost looks like the case you get when you have a fancy set of headphones hiding your weapon in plain sight. The stealth pistol case holds a single handgun and maybe an extra magazine or two. This keeps your gun safe but the case cannot be locked. It’s great for quick transportation and carrying your gun in places where you don’t want to let folks know what is in the case. It’s super easy to throw into your pack and hit the range.
