Just an FYI for everybody Walmart has this forsale today part of the black friday sale. It is one of the few things that went on sale at 8 AM here.


I picked it up right away. I would call it a knock off of a pelican case but so far it looks very well made even has the pick-n-pluck foam.


Sorry if this is posted already or if it is in the wrong place.

Picked a a couple up as i cant afford a pilican case. They seem fairly well made with locking latches and also holes for padlocks.

Those are very good quality all weather type cases. Maybe not quite as good as Pelican, but good enough. At $30 it is a steal. They sell for around $100 everyday. We use them as duty cases for storage of AR's in the trunk of patrol vehicles.

It's a black Friday deal only. My local store has never carried Plano cases before (or the clays they have for $5 today also)

I just picked up two of them. One was for a friend though.

They are great quality for $30, but they are not pelican cases.

The store near me had about 10 left 30 minutes ago but another nearby store never had any delivered to them. It seems to be hit and miss.
Thanks Dan_Gray!

Got the last one at one of the walmarts around here. It was sitting on a box of clays, so I picked one of those up for 5 bucks as well! I was hoping to get a few more for when I get more ARs, but oh well.

Just an FYI....I found about 5-6 of them sitting in their shipping boxes just stacked up with no rhyme or reason. I wouldn't of even known if i didn't read the shipping label on the boxes. So look at any brown normal looking boxes stacked up or laying around. They are def worth $30.

Will the price be valid though the weekend or was it only for today?

I just checked out with three of them, after midnight here, and they were still $30.

If anybody in Central PA is looking Altoona is out but East Freedom still had about a dozen.

I replied to an instant message from MadMackintosh but for anyone in Utah, the Saratoga Springs Walmart is where I picked mine up.

The American Fork one did not get any at all.

3 walmarts in county, I was only able to check one today.

Its not normal stock for any of them as far as I know, so I'm hoping I can nab it for 30 bucks still... provided any still have them, if they ever got them.

found 2 tonight at my local walmart. one has a slightly broken latch. had them drop the price to $25 since it can be fixed easily and doesn't affect the locking
