billt Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Link to case at Cabela's Yesterday I stopped by Cabela's because I wanted to take a good look at the Tactical Rifle Cases they have. This case normally sells for $64.99. I got one of those "Employee Price Discount" cards in the mail, and I called to check what kind of discount it would get me on this particular case. The girl on the phone checked and said it would knock the price down to $48.77. I also got a flyer in the mail that said they were going on sale for $49.99 starting 1/3/2013. I was so impressed with the case I bought 2 of them. This case is very large and well made for the price. To compare, one of my LWRC piston AR's came with an Elite Survival Systems Case similar in design to this one, and I think the Cabela's case is much nicer. The Elite Survival Case sells upwards of $100.00. It comes in both black, as well as Digital Camo. They only had the Digital Camo model, which didn't matter because that is what I wanted. The case comes with plenty of Molle attachment points, as well as 2 detachable pouches. They sell extra pouches as well. They come 2 in a pack for $19.95. I bought several of them because they are perfect in size to fit extra magazines in. I have a total of 6 on each case. Each one will easily fit 3, 30 round magazines. It has internal tie downs for your weapon, and 2 pocketed areas front and rear to contain both the muzzle and buttstock, and all zippers are double, and very large and heavy duty. It also comes with a single, detachable shoulder strap, and 2 heavy duty carry handles. One is attached to each side that are joined together with a Velcro strip at the center. The material is lined with a type of plastic material that will go a long way in keeping the contents protected from water. The detachable pouches feature this as well. The built in center pouch comes with the case, and it has 2 zippered access points to seperate compartments. Either one or both of these would easily hold a large handgun. As I mentioned these things are going on sale in a couple of days for just $49.99 each. They are well worth the $64.99 regular price, and are an absolute steal for $49.99. For anyone who needs a really nice case for their AR-15, AK-47, or similar type weapon, but doesn't want to break the bank buying one, I highly recommend this Cabela's case.If anyone can make this link hot it would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryinIN Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Let's try this: http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/product.j...MAL%3BIK-230823 Good looking case. I've been looking for something like that since getting the SCAR. I want a rectangular one, and wide enough to handle the rather tall height with optic. Most are well over a hundred.Do the external pockets detach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billt Posted January 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Do the external pockets detach?Yes they do. They are held securely in place with Molle Straps. 3 snaps at the bottom of each pouch unsnap, then the whole pouch can be pulled straight up and out of the Molle webbing.

Moe Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I bought 2 of them last year when they were on sale for $49.95. I use them all the time and so far they have been great. My 22" AR varmint with a standard A2 stock barely fits, but it can be squeezed in. Overall, a good buy IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billt Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I was just at Cabela's again today, and they were all out of these cases. I did pick up 4 more of the Molle pouches that strap on to the side. You can easily fit 3, 30 round magazines in each one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryinIN Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Did it go on sale? I kept checking, but it kept showing $64.95 on the site. Not that it's not worth it, but I'd rather pay $50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryinIN Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I was afraid of that. I tried putting it in my cart to see if the numbers changed, but no. Checked the online sale/clearance stuff- no.I'd just go to a store, but the nearest Cabela's is nearly three hours away, so I'd be better off paying the full (low) price online. Especially knowing I'd get there and they'd be out, or back to regular price, or both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
