Eberlestock gear is made in VietnamI have 2 Voodoos picked up at Sportsmans and I been using them for 8 years or so and still going strong. For several of those years I was training 2 days a week. With 2 firearms, ammo, range kit they can be stuffed full requiring some hard pulling on the zippers, still going strong. I paid around $50 each. I used them more than any other rifle case. They came with backpack system but never used it,
I also have 2 Eblerstock that I like but they do not carry the same amount of kit as the condor but can be backpacked. Broke a buckle and a slider and Eblerstock wanted to charge me $5 per buckle plus shipping, not very good customer care for spending over $500 with them. Went to Sportsmans and spent $5 for both. Not sure I will buy another.
I have several soft cases not sure who makes them but I believe Allen. they work just find for what they are.
I have a TAB too, its my main carry case for precision rifles.
I'll follow up with some pictures of the final product next week. I'd be interested to see if anyone else out there thinks it's a good idea and would consider ordering one.
I’m interested too, post up pics when possible...Please share the outcome, sounds like one of those ideas I would talk about doing but never be able to pull off by myself.

This is a well constructed bag. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/939171584/midwayusa-sniper-drag-bag-tactical-rifle-case
I thought I would go ahead and put up some pictures of my first prototype. This is the one I created to figure out exactly what the finished product should be like. The next revision will have:
- wrap around carry handle and no shoulder strap
- wax canvas exterior
- 3/8 instead of 1/4 foam for more rigidity
I wanted to try and use a g-hook system to keep the cover flap closed, plastic fastex buckles are the obvious cheap functional choice, but pretty boring. The loops on the cover flap ended up being a little too long, and the g-hook just won't keep a strap tight by itself. At a bare minimum I'm going to add some tri glides below the hooks, adjustment length will only be semi-quick (should be fine.)
The weird seam on the bottom of the case will go away, that's just there because I'm an idiot and don't know anything about how to cut fabric. The next case will be the same shape but with a slightly different construction that will minimize the number of exposed/unfinished seams on the inside. The "tape" trim on the outside seams looks nice, but I am still on the fence. Might do away with that. The cover flap will also be a bit shorter, won't go all the way down the front of the case.
One of the other reasons I started on this project was that none of the soft cases I liked had enough depth to comfortably carry my chassis rifle with the side folding stock. And if they did, they were way too long. And way too complicated. If anyone else ever ends up wanting one, the beauty would be buyer-specified depth, height and length.
Y’all let me know what you think!

My SERT 42" TCC arrived today. Very impressed with the material and workmanship. It is very well built. Love all the rows of PALS webbing. Can really get my rifle tied down in the case. The exterior compartment is also lined with multiple PALS rows and has lots of room. I really like that you get 4 tie down straps instead of just two. I had looked at a lot of higher end cases. Wanted to stay with "Made in USA". The cases were nice. But were not really set up like I wanted. The SERT cases are made of American made materials. And I really don't mind where they are made. It's not China!
I can see why people recommend them. Their MOLLE pouches have the same quality. I will be getting more of their products.
