Recently at a Darley Defense expo I was able to talk to the fellas from Plano. Plano has a fairly extensive line of weapons and ammo cases. Who knew. They've been around for a bit, but I wasn't tracking them. If you haven't heard of Plano you've probably never owned or shopped for a tackle box. If you don't know what a tackle box is, please stop reading and seek other means of entertainment.
Just having gotten a new shotgun, the Plano 108190 All Weather Case was just what I needed and just what I ended up with. Most of you are probably familiar with Pelican or Storm cases and these are pretty much the same. There are some small differences, but the most beneficial difference being the price point. You can pick this case up from Walmart for around $115. A Pelican case of this size will cost you around $300.
As you can see in the picture above it has the pluck style foam which enables you to pluck out a specific shape to better secure your firearms and equipment. I just haven't plucked it yet, so the shotgun is setting on top. Below you'll see that the case has wheels and locking latches. The latch locks aren't up to TSA specs, but there are lock holes so that you can also lock it with a TSA approved lock.
Plano also produces ammunition boxes. They are much like the military style ammo cans most of us are familiar with, except much lighter. Great for throwing loose ammo or boxes of ammo in. They have several shapes and sizes to choose from. They are very durable and very handy for whatever other else you can use them for. These are one of those things you can never have too much of.
So if you're looking for a great gun case or some convenient, durable storage cases go check out the Plano website and then go shopping. Check the tag below and see one of the best reasons to shop Plano....Made in the USA!
