I will say that Nanuk shipping is slow as molasses. I ordered a case last Sunday (a week ago), and it still hasn’t shipped despite their saying in an email it would ship in 1-3 business days. It is shipping from Canada, so Thanksgiving was a business day.I get that these are considered the "cheap" option, and some may have a hard budget which I can understand. However if you can go one step in price up, even being budget minded I strongly recommend considering right now Nanuk is still having their sale, and for only $100 more dollars because it is also free shipping and no tax:
NANUK 995 | Official NANUK Protective Long Case Online Store - Waterproof & Indestructible Hard Case
Measuring 52” inside, the NANUK 995 is our longest case built for extreme protection and transportation of double rifles, primarily. | Shop Now at Nanuknanuk.com
You get a top of the line quality case (imo better than pelican), lifetime warranty, their customer service is great, and the case is slightly larger. Also there are plenty of third party options to change the foam to closed cell (polyethylene) foam if you want.
If you get it with the TSA locks and foam it will put you at $217. Or you could do foam and no TSA locks, then throw in either a shoulder strap, or a dessicant pack and it will be $215. The 985 and 990 are also great deals right now.

My gosh I had to do a double take on the MDT Field Stock 2nds for $204 to my door
I haven’t, but at the sale price of the Area 419 Hellfire system and $30 for their universal attachments, I decided to buy into that system. Way cheaper per gun if you’re fitting a lot of guns, plus now have a wider ability to fit various brands to any gun which in my case will be a dead air Sandman-L and a TBAC 338 Ultra BA, eventually.
Well dang. I have an CB Ultra 7 in Jail and I just assumed I needed to use their CB mounts!!I haven’t, but at the sale price of the Area 419 Hellfire system and $30 for their universal attachments, I decided to buy into that system. Way cheaper per gun if you’re fitting a lot of guns, plus now have a wider ability to fit various brands to any gun which in my case will be a dead air Sandman-L and a TBAC 338 Ultra BA, eventually.
That’s what I assumed as well until someone suggested I look into these recently, and then a week later they were an sale so that made my decision easier to make!
Area 419 is absolutely the way to go. I don’t jump cans around a lot but that system easily allows me to rotate through my 3 favorites, Dominus, CGS Helios QD Ti and magnus hub. Plus I can throw a hellfire match brake on if I want to be a heathen and shoot unsuppressed which I never do. I don’t usually hunt with my magnus but if I’m walking to one of my closer open stands I’ll use it.
Well adapters, brakes, and CB adapter ordered… I only thought I was done spending money!!
It's $1,083 before tax w/code. Not sub $1K. Cheaper on A419 website.Sub $1K on Brownells (backordered, though) using the BF code.
It's sub $1K for me before tax/shipping when including 3% cashback.
$1,187.49 (Price) -$178.12 (Promo) = $1009.37 - 3% Cashback ($30.28) = Buy it from A419, then.
Hm, you got an industry account? I don’t see that pricing on either item.That HF Match can be had for ~$145 on Brownells, which, last time I looked, was cheaper than the A419 BF sale:

Did you enter the BF15 code in the field at checkout? The 15% is taken off the price you see on the product page.
Base price shows $195 for me (pre BF15 code, not including Activejunky 3% cash back). No clue how you got $169 to pop up.
My apologies, guys...thought everyone saw the same price, so I can see the confusion now with that screenshot showing $195 sticker price.
Dang, I completely forgot about Active Junky. I even have an account, just haven’t remembered to log in to use it the last couple years. Thanks for the reminder!

Anyone have any experience with their throw levers from this place, “Rusty Nuts Designs”? I don’t know anything about them, but pretty impressed with the variety of different scopes they are offering them for, plus they are on sale for $15 each.
I don’t know if shipping goes up with more items, but just testing the waters, added two throw levers to the cart and plugged in my info to see shipping charges, which for those two levers came out to $6.50.
That's me boss. I do $5 flat shipping for hide members, no matter the qty ordered. Sold a ton of them here. PM me if you want to order.
Edit to add: I'll custom make one for any scope for the $15 as well for hide members.
You just quoted the guy who runs the place. I haven't bought the throw levers, but he's a good guy.
Offers free STL files for you to print some your own stuff. Others would probably charge for that.
I bought a couple of his flat trigger shoes for my Tikkas. They were good quality

Pelicans are not crushproof. I own three 1750s. They feel solid but have a limit. The hinges give at a stress far below where they should. All of mine now have some issues getting all the latches shut. I think the plastic degrades over time due to sun exposure and being in the garage. After years of weekly trips to the range in my truck - they all now chip a bit when banged or dropped. My oldest one ( 5 years old) shattered at the corners three weeks ago when run over empty while locked. I was kind of surprised. I would have expected it to be deformed and needing retirement, but not shattered with spalling inside the case and the latches broken. Tells me a dude with a crowbar is going to get in your case.
I shopped around and like the Nanuk.I liked the 995's hinges which hold the case open at a 90 degree angle. It's also much lighter than the Pelican. And the hinges look much stronger. The latches are much easier to operate with cold fingers.
Not sure what I will go with for travel.
That's an interesting anecdote. I don't hear much about Pelicans breaking down, which may be due to people not using them enough. You are putting them through their paces which is good. It does sound like UV embrittled the plastic, making it more prone to shattering. I only have a pelican 1170 and a Nanuk 910 to compare, and they have not seen much sun or impact, however just feeling the plastic material and the latches lets me know the Nanuk is higher quality. I'm curious if the Nanuk material is more resistant to UV and temperature fluctuations over time.

May be of value to some since their black friday was a ladder of flat discounts, this could offer more savings depending on what you get.
I have two from https://www.caseclub.com/ - I have recommend to others, just another option for you to check out.
Make It Ring Targets has pretty good prices & free shipping on their website... but their Amazon storefront has approximately the same prices, free shipping, plus 15% off when purchasing 2 or more
Interesting that ARC still has not been heard from. This is the timeframe he usually releases new products correct?
Do any of the swfa throw levers also work on the fixed power swfa scopes as a parallax throw lever? On the fixed power scopes the parallax adjustment is where traditionally the magnification ring would be on a scope.
Our sale is still going on until the end of the week!

I just got off the phone with mile high to tell them which free spuhr mount I wanted with my 10% off NX8, doesn’t even have to be one to fit that scope I got a 34mm mount, and they threw in a couple free shirts.
I’m really surprised I didn’t hear more about that promotion on here and the guys on the phone said they haven’t had a lot of takers. That’s a hell of a deal.

Man that’s making me second guess my Zeiss S3 purchase. Was on the fence for it or an NX8.
