hey, remember last week I posted that I scored a used Hardigg rifle transport case for $75?

Yeah. Well.

Case is in good shape but make no mistake about it – this thing is designed for M16’s and M4’s that are basically stock. No optics, no special foreends, no special stocks, no sidemount slings on the buttstock…any of that stuff and they will not fit in the case properly. I had to leave the scoped/dotted AR’s out but the no-frills guns fit in there quite nicely. The case alone weighs 66# and once you stuff a dozen AR’s in there your gonna north of the 150# range…hitting the upper limit of man-portable. On the other hand, if you and your cell need to stash away a dozen rifles (with 24 magazines) in some sort of long-term hideout location, well this is the case for you.

Someone asked me what I thought of the case. I told ‘em it was like a prescription – now that I have it, I have to go get it filled.

Case purchased from: Old Grouch
