Guns are powerful, expensive weapons that should be treated with respect. While transporting a weapon it is important to keep in mind the safety of others and the safety of the weapon itself. On of the most effective ways to safely travel with a gun is to use a case with custom foam inserts.
Customs foam inserts are rugged, durable, and most importantly the safest way to carry a weapon. Each insert is designed to match the exact measurements of the gun and is rated to resist damage from drops and other abrasive moments. Foam is an excellent shock absorber that can withstand a lot of force.
Most gun cases come with an eggshell like foam that lines the top of a case, and foam with cutouts for the specific weapons. Commonly, the bottom section of the case is made so the weapon can be carried in a disassembled form. Most airports and major highways prohibit the carrying of a loaded weapon or assembled weapon.
It is important to protect your gun and make sure that it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. Custom carrying cases often come with locks, that ensure only the handler can access the gun. Contact a professional if you have more questions about custom carrying cases, or blow molded cases.
