I'm flying with a handgun only in a couple weeks and was trying to figure out a affordable yet secure way of checking it.
The times I've checked a firearm before it's included a long arm so the pistol was just thrown in the big case.
I was pricing new cases and all kinds of stuff and realized I already own a pelican case, it just doesn't have the correct guts.
After a bit of research I found this: Pelican 1200 3-Piece Foam Set https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0052599ZK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_ujtukerEELhJ5
Came in the mail the other day and I figured since my drains are cleared already I'd take some time and work on it.
It's my first experience with the pluck it foam.
I think it looks good.
On a related note be careful buying padlocks for pelican cases. I am now the proud owner of a key matched set of padlocks that do not have long enough shanks and since they were only $5 aren't worth returning.
