Maybe some one can clarify for me, but what counts as a concealed fire arm?

I was under the impression that if its a case not designed / branded as a fire arm case, that you would be found in violation of the law?

Nowhere does the Firearms Act mention anything about "designed / branded" as a firearms case.

TRANSPORTATION OF NON-RESTRICTED FIREARMS
10. (1) An individual may transport a non-restricted firearm only if
(a) except in the case of a muzzle-loading firearm that is being transported between hunting sites, it is unloaded; and
(b) in the case of a muzzle-loading firearm that is being transported between hunting sites, its firing cap or flint is removed.
(2) Subject to subsection (3), an individual may transport a non-restricted firearm in an unattended vehicle only if
(a) when the vehicle is equipped with a trunk or similar compartment that can be securely locked, the non-restricted firearm is in that trunk or compartment and the trunk or compartment is securely locked; and
(b) when the vehicle is not equipped with a trunk or similar compartment that can be securely locked, the non-restricted firearm is not visible from outside the vehicle and the vehicle, or the part that contains the non-restricted firearm, is securely locked.
(3) If, in a remote wilderness area that is not subject to any visible or otherwise reasonably ascertainable use incompatible with hunting, an individual is transporting a non-restricted firearm in an unattended vehicle that is not equipped with a trunk or similar compartment that can be securely locked, and the vehicle or the part of it that contains the non-restricted firearm cannot be securely locked, the individual shall ensure that the non-restricted firearm
(a) is not visible; and
(b) is rendered inoperable by a secure locking device, unless the individual reasonably requires the non-restricted firearm for the control of predators.

So as long as the firearm is unloaded you're good to go, you can carry it any container. Hell, you can carry it along in a plastic shopping bag as long as it is unloaded.
 
I did the same thing, went to a bag store and bought a laptop case that can fit my SUB 2000 and a number of magazines. I'm currently adding foam padding to keep everything in place. The case can also take a lock for an added measure of security. :)

The plastic bag comment made me giggle :p, watching guys leave the calgary gun show on the C-train with rifle in garbage bags. Oh the looks on the faces of the ill informed masses.
