This case was brought to my attention by a coworker, and I had to see what all the fuss was about. I thought I would share what I found with my readers.

The case is from the Royal Case Company based in Sherman in the great state of Texas. While it is on the large side, it is definitely not a rifle case. Still, you should be able to fit three, or even four, full size pistols in the well padded interior. The interior of the case measures 20.4 inches long by 12.4 inches wide and is 6.75 inches deep. Tipping the scales at 9.25 lb, this heavy weight is no slouch. It is definitely a heavy duty item. It's a good thing that it features a heavy duty large handle that allows you to carry such substantial weight in relative comfort. This case is huge and can hold a ton of stuff it you want it to. The latches are positive locking without being as difficult as other brands.

The three foam sections that are included make cutting outlines for a customized case a breeze. Of course you can simply leave the foam intact for use as separating layers. The foam lid seal allows for weatherproof use while the pressure equalization valve permits changes in altitude without problems with air pressure equalization.

Overall at this price point I feel this case represents a real value. I think any similar sized case built “better” at any higher price point would be an case of pursuing diminishing returns.
