Sorry did not see this one...
It's simple, NANUK uses resin NK-7 that is flexible, 10% lighter and is more resistant to cold and frost. Therefore NANUK cases do not crack, do not break, bounce in case of impact and return to their shape when they are forcefully compressed.
I don't get why Nanuk puts freaking TSA locks on their cases.
Based on all of my dealings with TSA and flying firearms: you are not permitted to lock firearm cases with TSA approved locks. They must be locked with standard (non-TSA) locks.
From the TSA:
Only the passenger should retain the key or combination to the lock unless TSA personnel request the key to open the firearm container to ensure compliance with TSA regulations.
TSA doesn't ever open firearms cases outside of your presence. They X-Ray the case with you present before sending it down the chute, that is their only opportunity to open it.

That is the reason why NANUK provides the stainless ring inlet to over lock with a padlock.
The TSA lock on our Nanuk was not created just for gun cases, but created for any Nanuk case.
Very small percentage of people actually take their cases to US.
BTW, from personal experience, I have traveled with TSA locks only to US. That was never an issue. I had other issues, but that is for another thread...

Forcefully compressed into my optics!
