Discreet short rifle (not an SBR) case?

[jvencius]

I finally more-or-less finished, less paint and an eventual can, finished my boltgun and now I need a case for it. With the stock folded it's appx. 29"x10.5"x4" so I was thinking either a discreet (no MOLLE, no more than a small velcro patch, preferably in an obnoxious civvie color, etc...) SBR case or even something like a large tennis racquet case would work for toting it around. If anyone has a recommendation for a such a case, I"m all ears since I live in an apartment and would rather not keep it in a case that screams "GUN IN HERE KILL KILL KILL."

cannot get more discrete than a small rolling suitcase, so many people use them daily for papers, books, lunch, change of shoes whatever, almost would never contain wallet/purse type contents so very low prospect for theft

no one looking at this will think gun, more like dirty underwear

The pic doesn't do it justice, but I picked one of these up awhile back and its decent:

.
Lots of room in side pocket and doesnt take up a lot of room. It actually looks more like this one, minus the mag pouches:

Also look at an old saxophone case and refoam it. Pawn shops seem to have plenty of them lying around.

Galatai makes discreet cases in varying lengths and colors. If its an AR platform have you considered breaking it down by separating the upper and lower receiver? Then you can go as short as say 26"?

I have one for my work rifle as I'm assigned to the Airport and don't want to scare, and/or advertise to, the sheeple that I have a carbine over my shoulder on the way in and out in civvies.

I saw that but it won't work since my rifle is 29" OAL at it's shortest/folded configuration and that bag can only handle a piece up to 26" OAL.

play it again sports would be a good source, something functional but used looking would be ideal

edit, took my own advice went to play it again sports and got a nice bat bag for 20 $

Damn, there's no Play It Again Sports in Vegas (or Henderson where I live)--I'll have to hit up Goodwill and the Salvation Army to see if they have something that'll work. I did make a very generic template of my rifle with the stock folded since toting the weapon itself into one of those stores might raise an eyebrow or two...

How about any case that's big enough? Don't overthink it.

I use a soft guitar case for my AR-10, works great as long as no one asks me to play a song.
