If you just want to look like you're a real sportsman, this looks like a gun case but that's about as far as it goes.
1. - the foam insert is thin enough so that you'll have to add more padding to keep your gun from sliding around inside it.
2. - The case is flimsy enough that if you want to lock it, it will take at least three locks. Any less and you simple flip either of the end latches or the center latches and slide the gun right out.
3. - As long as we're talking about locks, take the case with you when you buy the locks. I bought a set of four Master padlocks and had to use extreme force the two end locks closed.
4. - Don't even think about flying with this "airline approved" case. They will take it but the case offers very little protection against damage. And, you will probably have to replace at least one of the latches.
5. - The photo of a pickup truck backing over the case is obviously photoshopped, either that or they poured the case full of concrete.
I'd expect a lot more from a US manufacturer. Buy something else if you really care about your rifle.

Not really happy with my new Plano cases. They are bulky! The interior padding is not glued or fastened to the case, so that every time I open the cases, the padding falls down from the upper half of the case. There are protrusions that are intended to re-enforce the strength of the case, like as though I'm going to run over my rifle case with my auto, therefore I need a super tough case - but - these protrusions do nothing but get in the way and consume space. My rifles slop around inside the case, figure that the foam is insufficently thick to actually squeeze the rifle between the two pieces of foam. so that my rifles will lay flat, but don't pick up the case - cause when I do - I can hear my rifle sliding around inside. Not happy. I've had better cases at cheaper prices. Thought Plano was a good brand, thought I'd try Amazon - but, after placing several online orders with Amazon and other online venders - I am begining to think that the best way to buy is NOT online, but to see the item in person. Online when you purchase something really nice, is a bargin - but, online purchases that do not work out to your satisfaction, become only a hassle, cause you lose your shipping costs, and pay return shipping. It's a lose - lose situation.

Much sturdier than others offered for more $ locally. Crush resistant. Fits shotgun, shells, and extra barrel without problem.

It barely, just barely fits my Tikka T3 .300 Win Mag with large optic scope inside and between these pillars. Nice case, does its job and protects my rifle. What else is there to say?

This case is amazing for a measly $30. It has a tough outer shell, and great soft padding that holds the gun excellently! It cost nearly $100 anywhere else for a case of this quality.

One negative that I personally did question was the hand seemed a little flimsy, its nothing bad, just because the plastic isnt as thick in the handle area...and I also wouldn't recommend using it for the airport because the four hook locks arent the strongest either. But it has four holes for four locks, which mine has a lock in every hole, and with that you dont even need the hook locks cuz that baby isnt oppening.

Although there are 1 or 2 tiny things i mentioned that were a bit negtive, I would 100% reccomend this case to any of my friends or family who are looking for a great case for a great price. If I get any more guns I will buy more of these!!!!!

(btw, I use this case for a Mossber 500A 18.5" barrell, with a knoxx stock, a light, and 1 or 2 extras)

For the price you can't beat this. These things seem to go from this price straight to around 100 dollars so for around 20 dollars this case does what you would expect. I wouldn't recommend using it for flights since baggage handlers could be rough and crack it or break open the plastic snaps. But if you just need a case to store your rifle in between hunts it is perfect!

Case is more flimsy than I expected especialy in the handle area however,
case seems to hold gun in place quite well.I carry my sks with highrise scope with plenty of room also holds extra boxes of ammo and I also carry
a pistol along with the rifle with no movement of either.

I am very pleased with my purchase of the ProMax (Plano) single scoped rifle case. It securely holds my Savage .17 HMR rifle (93R17-GV) with a 42mm scope. My rifle is about 40" in length and there is room to spare. The case is rugged, the clasps work well and for the price and free shipping it can't be beat.
Plano Pillared Single Scoped Gun Case

This is the best-fitting case I've found so far for my 8-shot Mossberg 500A. My gun has a TacStar sidesaddle on it, which actually makes the case fit even better: some have complained about the thin padding letting their rifles slide around, but the added thickness of the sidesaddle means mine doesn't move a bit. Plenty of room for ghost ring sights, too. I've tried other cases and this is far and away the best one you can buy for under $100.

I bought two of these cases for a couple of my guns. Both are very cheaply constructed in comparison to another hard case I have. The hassle of sending them back isn't worth it for me. I will use them until they are junk. Maybe in a few years they will end up in garbage can and I will continue perpetuating the American throw-away society... These cases are CHEAP! If your guns are expensive, spend the money and get something decent, not these.
