Pistol Case

Thanks for the tip on these. Just bought one at Princess Auto near West Edmonton Mall. Was not marked on sale but asked the checkout gal if it was on sale and she put it though at the sale price. In my experience, they are pretty generous with extending sale prices.

Just curious, has anybody checked if the seal is actually waterproof?

Not sure, have not submerged it and doubt I will but it does have a pretty decent seal around the edges. I for one prefer air flow around my firearms so I don't really care about it being waterproof... but then I am not storing sensitive electronics in mine...perhaps you have another use in mind. I did notice there is a knob that screws out of a threaded brass sleeve, exposing a hole into the case. Also, a "plate" that slides in and out near the handle...perhaps a name plate if you want to label the case for contents. I'll see if I can post up a picture.

Edit: You can see the knob in the pictures at the beginning of this thread. The slide-out plate is not shown on the same picture but is just above it.

Edit #2: I suspect the hole is used to release internal vacuum so that you can open the case lid under certain circumstances...pressure/temp/altitude variations from when it was last closed...eluding to a good seal?
