If you are concerned about weight and space, get the Costco Savior Range Bag for $60, it fucks.
redoggle@reddit
the bags at my Costco don't have the Molle straps on the front anymore. Kinda weird, but still decent bags
codeblend@reddit
Picked up both the same day. Great prices.
OldDirtyGurt@reddit
This thing was too long to fit in my car's trunk. Ended up returning it.
BlueJay9578@reddit
I looked at this in store and realized it would never fit. Wish they had something shorter like a 42” case. Would buy instantly.
nopenope12345678910@reddit
And here I was thinking we all drove lifted trucks with window decals of our ARs.
SpaceCampDropOut@reddit
It says I have to join a yearly membership for $29/year
WI_Esox_lucius@reddit
You should not have to join their Inside Track for this deal currently.
When they run their parking lot sales inside track members get early access but it's currently open to everyone.
Hoosier500@reddit
You can sign up for a 2-year membership in store for a discount. I believe it's $44.99.
BlueJay9578@reddit
This. 2 year membership can only be done in store I think. I actually just re-upped for 2 years to buy a new car jack and jack stands. Picked up the 2800 case for handgun for $17.
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
Yes. This.
BestAdamEver@reddit
I have a couple of these and a few other Apache cases plus one Pelican case. Probably not just as good as a Pelican but they're REALLY good, especially for the price. I use a pistol case for my laptop and it's accesories.
charsons@reddit
FAQ for every time I see this posted:
Yes it’s a fantastic case
No it’s not as good as a Pelican, but decently close
Yes this is a good price
No this is not the cheapest they’ve ever been
Sneaux96@reddit
Magpul Daka fits, buy the 52" version.
glockguy34@reddit
I wouldnt say it’s close tbh, these feel very cheap. I was disappointed. Definitely go check them out in person before you buy
MyNamesMikeD75@reddit
Everyone else says it
glockguy34@reddit
the hive mind is not always right. my dad always said when i was growing up, “if everyone else is jumping off a bridge, are you going to?” this is one of those cases
MyNamesMikeD75@reddit
I guess your dad was a dumbass too
1610925286@reddit
I honestly see pelicans on sale so often, I don't know why anyone would get this.
I recently paid $134 for a Pelican V730, why the fuck would I pay $99 for this? It's the Pelican is slightly larger yet weighs the same, the buckles don't suck and open easy, etc.
ImDukeCaboom@reddit
I think you comparing the wrong cases.
The v730 is 44" long, this one is 50"+. Considerably bigger.
Abject_Egg_194@reddit
Thanks for mentioning this. My baby truck only has a 48" bed, so 50+" is just more inches than I can comfortably handle...
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
That's what she said!
1610925286@reddit
The volume is bigger.
ImDukeCaboom@reddit
Which litterally does not matter with long guns. Length is the primary concern. Never heard of anyone having an issue with depth.
6" of length is a big difference.
1610925286@reddit
So you are wrong about which case is larger and now shit the goal posts to saying it's longer. Clown behavior.
1610925286@reddit
What are you talking about:
nanananananabatdog@reddit
Share your deal man

https://www.reddit.com/r/gundeals/comments/1p3eopn/other_pelican_vault_v730_44in_rifle_case_16799_20/
Was this one, 3 months ago.
nanananananabatdog@reddit
Yeah I've been looking for a couple long cases. Pelican deals have been evasive for me, I missed this one
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
Agree on all points. I've picked them up for $80 on black Friday sales. But $100 is still a good price - $50 off...
Diligent-Parfait-236@reddit
When they released a few years ago full price was 100 and they went on sale now and again, now at "150" they seem to always be on sale for 100.
Vindictive_Turnip@reddit
Inflation and tariffs will do that.
Diligent-Parfait-236@reddit
Those typically raise the actual price and not just what's written on the tag under the sale tag that's never been removed.
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
But you used to get them for $80 on sale, so actual price increased too.
possum-fucker@reddit
Also -heavier than fuck
sfotex@reddit
My dad had me grab one for him when they were on sale last time and had me store it until he made his way out my way. I had that thing in my garage for a few months and cussed his name every time I had to move it out of the way, I would rather have had to deal with a motorcycle then that stupid case.
Affectionate_Cronut@reddit
laterisingphxnict@reddit
Came here to say this...I sold my AR that was in it, let the owner keep it. Too f'n heavy!
Impossible-Chance993@reddit
So fucking heavy 😭 they’re the worst
macr6@reddit
Does it have wheels?
aaronlaurent@reddit
Yes it does
cyclorphan@reddit
Nice big case, pretty heavy, better than usual price. I'm tempted but honestly, my savior bag is about the same size and weighs quite a bit less with ample extra storage areas for mags/ammo/tools/etc.
Now, if I were traveling a long distance and, say, had to check the case with a baggage team, or maybe if I had it on a boat that was likely to see some rough seas, I think it would make a lot of sense. I'm not there yet though.
roachbooty@reddit
Heavy as sin. Smacked my ankle with one while lugging it to the counter and decided it wasn’t for me
Kakashi-dono@reddit
These are good but a little on the heavy side. Especially when you put two rifles in them. The wheels help you lug them around but for most vehicles, unless you drive a truck or suv, they won’t fit in your trunk. You’ll have to lower your back seat or just place it on your back seats. I liked it but I hated that it didn’t fit in my trunk long ways.
Hoosier500@reddit
The medium cases are also on sale for $17.99. HF tracker says lowest they've been.

_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
I saw that too. Great price on those for pistol boxes.
WI_Esox_lucius@reddit
Have 2.
Good for long distance travel or airline travel.
Not great for range days. Heavy as shit.
1610925286@reddit
There is no way this is within the airline size limits though, right? There's a chance you'll be refused check in potentially from what I've read.
K2e2vin@reddit
No issues with United. IIRC, they didn't weigh or measure it. They just checked to see if there was a firearm in there, locked in front of them, and then x-rayed in a separate area.
DetroitLionCity@reddit
The case is well within most airlines oversize baggage limits.
1610925286@reddit
Must have been about the fee then, nevermind.
Mediocre_Draw_7358@reddit
Perfectly fine for range days if you're ok with lugging around something like 35 lbs.
DoctorDirtnasty@reddit
if it’s too heavy for you, go to the gym
BZJGTO@reddit
I have one already, but it would be nice if it was lighter. Mine is full of tools and recovery gear, and sometimes I throw it up on the roof rack. If I decide I need a second (or third) case, I may go with different cases. An extra ~15 lbs per case is not insignificant (especially for those with OEM racks that are typically rated for 150 lbs dynamic load).
1610925286@reddit
It's not too heavy to lug around, it's heavy enough that it fucking sucks to load and unload.
I'd just like to point out, pelican cases go on sale all the time and somethings can be had used. This is not it, imo. I spent 135 on a v730.
Incoherentdelusion@reddit
I initially thought the same thing then I thought of my old man. Weight is important for him in his age.
DoctorDirtnasty@reddit
fair enough.
tyberious72@reddit
This weekend is the Harbor Freight parking lot sale btw
TooMuchPretzels@reddit
Doggone it. In for a green one.
Spare_Selection4399@reddit
It is a nice case. I bought it last time @ this price. So far I have not used it even once- it is heavy, I don't compete/ fly with long gun. so I always want to use my soft case locally
DUCK_FACE_JONES@reddit
good stuff, rip if you try to use this each range trip though
inthebeerlab@reddit
Just get stronger
Superb-Detective-838@reddit
My gun room is in the basement, not exactly the easiest thing in the world to maneuver up the steps and around corners. Had to return it for a soft case.
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
My gun room has a 12'x12' overhead door, so I can easily maneuver it in and out. 😅. 🍻
billytoad631@reddit
Hearing mixed answers on if this counts as an oversized luggage when flying if I still keep it under 50 pounds?
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
Most major U.S. airlines have a maximum size limit for checked luggage of 62 linear inches, which is the total of the bag's length, width, and height. If your bag exceeds this size, it will be considered oversize and may incur additional fees.
So, at 53x16x6, it would likely be considered oversize.
BickenBackk@reddit
To those concerned about weight:
I use this about every range trip and I don't find it obscenely heavy and I'm not a large dude. It's heavier than a soft bag but not to the point I've found it overly bothersome. I like this case a lot for the price.
_long_tall_texan_@reddit (OP)
It also has wheels if you have to carry it a long way. Honestly, I've never even thought about the weight... Surprised to see so many comments about that.
SunAdventurous6751@reddit
Since getting this case I've been able to save money by not needing a gym membership
cliff_tarpey@reddit
2 scoped hunting rifles and a pistol and still under 50lbs for airline travel
