Plano Four Pistol/Access Case
Plano’s Four Pistol/Access Case is a well-made and extremely versatile gun case. Resembling a fat briefcase, it has two interior layers of foam insulation to protect your handguns. Although it is designed to accommodate up to four full-sized handguns, I have managed to stuff twice that many guns in mine using a combination of compact, subcompact and full-sized handguns. The case features dual locks and a solid hinge for security, and can be padlocked for travel. It is a handy and economical way to transport handguns safely and securely.

Proper storage and security for a firearm is essential both at home and when traveling. With the wide array of solid and well-built gun cases that are now available, there is little excuse not to have your gun well protected both from thieves as well as from curious children.

Traveling with firearms also presents a challenge, as there are various local and state laws that affect your possession of some types of guns outside your home state. Indeed, traveling by car or air across state lines requires you to follow specific guidelines. A good solid and compact case that allows you to take your self-defense tools with you is a big part of what makes travel possible. Without further ado, here is a collection of new gun cases worth your consideration if you’re in the market for one.
