Thread: Gun Case

Hei Pete,
Welcome to the funny farm.
I just did a quick search on the forum and it doesn't look like there is any previous threads so you may want to do a google search - I would also search for guitar cases because the construction would be similiar with just the dimensions changed to suit the shottie.
Cheers
Paul

Thanks for the reply.Yes i did a search as well and come up with nothing. :confused: I have tried google as well but with the same result.
That is a good idea about the guitar case,as they are similar dimensions.
Thanks again,
Peter

I made one, well it was and still is for a rifle not a shotgun, but a shot gun would fit.

Made it out of something....damn can't remember the name of the timber..its red, kinda very similar to red cedar.

You wanna buy it? I am going to sell the rifle soon so the case will become redundant....

Cheers

argh huh. it's redbean....

Wot sort of rifle is it?

Its a CZ .22 with Bushnell trophy 6-18 x 40 scope. Only shot about 200 rounds all on the target range.

Hello Shane ,
You sound like you have a memory like mine!!How much are you wanting for the case? We really wanted to try and make our own,as a sort of project(to keep me off the streets I suspect!!)
Keep the rifle mate ,do not let little johny howard ( • "I hate guns"

What sort is it and what do you do hunt or target shooting ?
Peter

6-18 X 40 for a .22 seems a bit of an overkill to me, but hey, rifles are bit like tools, they are a personal thing.
I'm looking for another rifle at the moment but something which makes a bigger bang than a .22

Reminds me of the joke, What is a wok?

It's something yoy thwo at wabbits when ya don't have a wifle.

.50 maybe just a little to much bang for my buck.

If you plan to actualy use the case to carry the gun arround in, the first place to look is the qld.gov site check out the weapons act & regulations it will give you some specific information about building a case that conforms.

basicaly it should be metal or have equavalent security value, be lockable & preferably be able to be chained down.

I build equipment cases & recently considered marketing a compliant "nice" gun case.
If you are interested send me a personal message & we can chat.
have access to heaps of proprietry case hardware.

Unfortunately a timber gun case these days would just be an ornament unless it had some hiden strength.

cheers

G'day All.
.50 is a teeny weeny bit of overkill for bunnies, isn't it Ben.

I really like the 25/06 with a fluted bull barrel. 36X scope.
Head shot bunnies consistently out to 500 yards (measured) from a bipod.

great crow buster too.

Hooroo
