What is, in your opinion, the best soft case for a CAR/M4 length AR?  

I'm just looking for what some of you guys use, truth be told I already ordered one off Tactical Tailor.

Thanks

Galati.

They are pretty tough, ok price and it floats.  Not that I would ever float my rifle.

I have a Blackhawk discreet weapons bag.  I've had it for at least a year or so and it's seen a lot of use.  The material they use really holds up well.  It's also an excellently designed bag, albeit expensive like all Blackhawk stuff.  

If you get it, get an extra mag insert for the second pocket.  I have two of the mag inserts (for 6 mags total) and there's still room in the middle to dump stuff like slings and spare parts bags.

I had the Eagle Discrete case and it sucked, the new seems to be better.  The older case had the mag pouches in the same compartment as the rifle, dumb idea since there isn't enough room for them both and it balloons the case out.

I sold it and bought the Blackhawk Weapons Transport Case.  It will hold my M4 and 870 in a divided interior pocket as well as a pistol and mags in the outer pocket.  Includes the pistol and mag holders as well.  Very well made for the a Chinese case but what can you do.

Other choice would be the I-Shot but they are a lot more.  I had the I-Shot range bag but was un-impressed with the materials used.  Very cheap feeling bag, I hope the SERT bag is made tougher.

Cool, thank you for the replies.  I looked at Blackhawk and Eagle, the Tactical Tailor version was a little cheeper and I've had good luck w/ them in the past.  Never on a rifle case, but thier malice clips hold up great.  unrelated I know.

thanks again.

Years ago it was made in the US and they're quality was top notch!  I wish I never sold my made in the US Blackhawk Vest.

I was able to get firsthand experience with the Eagle (old style with mag pouches in same pocket as rifle), Blackhawk, Tactical Tailor and i-Shot.

Just in terms of "best", the i-Shot SERT is the best case out of all of them in my opinion. The Tactical Tailor was arguably a better value though as it many (though not all) features at a very reasonable price. Those two cases and the new case from TAG (that looks remarkably like the i-Shot case) were my top three choices.

My 42" SERT is about to get a little brother. These cases are the best soft cases IMO
I only would use pelicans before i found out about the I-Shot SERT

I purchased one of these at a show over the weekend. www.tommysgunpack.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=12

I've had one of their range bags for some time and it's well made and made in the US to boot.

Double Electric guitar case.

Fits my M4gery and AK perfectly.  Even has room for some mags and accesories.  I can walk from my car to house in yuppieville without getting DHS called out on me.

Now I can go out disuised as a dirty hippie and no one will ever suspect.  MUHAHAHA!!!
