Cheap/Improvised Handgun Transport Cases?

Ebay

I picked up this nice little case on Ebay for $13.99 USD, how much cheaper can they get? It's a real nice case. I have used it with a S&W Model 66 but it works real well with 1911's, even has a combination lock for each side.

I have the same one, from ebay too. It's pretty good for dirt cheap. I was suprised people can be making money selling them for that.
Of course, cheap is cheap and I don't expect it to last forever. But so far it's fine.
I've also used a small "cash box" from canadian tire. It has a pretty good lock on it. With some foam padding it fits a 1911 real nice.

I like the idea of a very plain briefcase. Next garage sale perhaps...

The price is cheap, however they are still made of extruded aluminum so they should last a while.
 
I use a lockable Samsonite Ladies vanity or makeup suitcase,in red ,blue or grey, a couple of bucks at thrift store, keys are available at locksmiths. Remove the mirror and little tray. I bought some plastic boxes that kids put school supplies or sandwiches in that fit my particular handguns . The boxes stack with room all around the boxes for mags. holster etc. When you pick up the box everything is laying flat and is carried that way because the Samsonite opens from the top.
 
WalMart

Wal-Mart has small pistol cases with a provision for a padlock including the eggcrate foam inside for $5.00 plus tax. It only holds one gun but it only cost's $5.00
 
Just curious to hear what people have come up with. I need to buy one, but I'd rather not spend a lot of money and not use something that advertises itself as a handgun case.

Would like to carry at least two handguns + mags.

One large range bag holds a tupperware container with ten mags for my 226 and 12 mags for my 1911. Two pistol rugs with guns ride in there too on top. Side pockets with assorted junk as well. I use a small padlock to lock the zipper closure to a tab at one end even tho the gns are trigger locked.
 
Thx - bought the $32 CT case. (found a nice stash of CT money around the house)

Lots of great suggestions here. Will be a good one for the archives!
