Developed the idea because the hard plastic case my Ruger came in had much to be desired. Also I didn't want to invest so much into a pelican or storm case.


This is a $15 tool box from Tractor supply. The latch will accept a pad lock.

I ordered some foam, about $17 worth, including shipping, and I have enough left over to do another box.

Cut out to fit my GP100 and a 100 round box

Another cut out to fit M&P and magazines

What's that tranny in the back there?

haha, bet you never seen one like it.
Its a BOP bellhousing turbo 400 with a 4wd output shaft to mate to a NP203/205 doubler

Nice work! Does the case carry both pistols or just one at a time?

I think the box might be deep enough to layer them both... Ill have to go try...

ETA: Yes I can fit the revolver and pistol at the same time, had to sacrifice a layer of foam, but as long as I don't drop the box down a flight of stairs It wont be an issue. Thanks for bringing that up

I change out the block for each gun. I have a 1" thick layer of foam on the top and bottom. I can also fit both guns by using 1/2" foam instead.

for a complete disguise you need a "urine samples" sticker on it.
 
you should have recessed it down a bit more so you could put a false bottom in it and have tools in it so when you open it up all ya see is tools till you pull that part out to reveal the gun. would be a pretty sweet spy case
