arfcom store has one That's a nice looking case. Unfortunately it says "AR15" right on the tag on the outside.  Exactly, there is nothing discreet about it. It is a nice case but discreet it is not. They don't have the patch on them anymore. I've got one and it's been great for the money. I can even squeeze a broken down a2 into it. I love my LaRue discreet case, but use the arfcom one for the 20-inch barreled rifles. |

Why do guys make nice foam gun cutouts and then put them in upside down? #5 Answer: It's a torture test, if it survives it's a tier 1 gun! #4 Answer: Because the blood doesn't rush to their head if they are stored upside down? #3 Answer: Because when you open it up on a flat surface it's easier to grab? #2 Answer: Because if you unzip it and reach in you'd rather be grabbing the pistol grip than the optic? #1 Answer: Who the fuck cares? |

People bring this up all the time. It's NOT ABOUT THEFT PREVENTION - people steal shit all the time. It's about hiding the fact you have a firearm to not draw unwanted attention. I do not suggest leaving a firearm in your unattended vehicle even with a discrete case. If you're not hiding it from thieves, who are you hiding it from? |

The neighbors, friends of the wife, the tire guy who needs to get back there, whoever might see it and not immediately assume it is a weapon. It has nothing to do with theft prevention. It is about blending it in and having good protection. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
I figure a guitar would be more likely to be stolen than a tennis racket. But I have nothing to base that one. I wouldn't imagine leaving any of them in a position to be stolen would be a good idea. To me it's more about being able to walk thru a hotel lobby or the like and not appear to have a rifle case. |

I am unable to find the thread/catagory about how to make a wire foam cutter.
It also had lots of posts with photos of gun cases that have been cut. |

Discreet vs. Discrete: What’s the Difference?
Discreet and discrete are homophones. They sound the same but they have different definitions. Discreet means careful or intentionally unobtrusive. Discrete means distinct or unconnected. |

I would use something like this if it's going to be in plain view. Guitars and tennis rackets are expensive, who wants to steal some old gym clothes.

I put padding on each end and a towel, or clothing, or something on the bottom, but the rifle in, and then cover it up a bit and throw the accessories in there as well. Looks like I have a gym bag full of clothes. |

Yeah you still don't have a clue what the 'ban' is, how it works, or what it effects. |

If you REALLY want discreet cases....
Slip your gun case into a 50 pound Pedigree Dog Food bag that has the resealable zipper. Thieves will break windows for Computer bags, Tennis Rackets, etc. When is the last time you heard of a thief breaking into a car for a bag of dog food laying in the back seat?

I was just going to post the suggestion of one of the large empty bags of cat litter. They are super heavy duty and if you stuffed it with a foam carrier if would look full. I could see doing a hollowed out book for a handgun in a car as well but I have a quick release safe for that covered with an old shirt. |
