The tennis racket case is definitely a good covert option. Does it hold the form of the racket without one in the case? (I.E. no sharp points where a handle or barrel end rests)

Eagle Discreet Case. I own two of them and run my SBR in one and my M16 RR in another. They are great.

(I.E. no sharp points where a handle or barrel end rests) It's semi ridgid so it holds it's form pretty well. I'm not too concerned about that though, I bought it mainly because it was cheap rather than covert. The eagle discrete case pictured above is another great, but more expensive, option that protects the rifle a lot more than the tennis racket case. I have one and I use if for my work carbine. |

I like the Noveske, but you have to have a very short barrel IIRC (<10"

I use a Vanguard aluminum case with dual combination locks. It's not a top quality case, but it survived a year or so of bouncing around in the trunk of a cruiser back when I was an LEO, and I still use it every time I go to the range. I've had it for about 10 years now. The outside is showing it's age, but I guess that's the point. Let the case get beat up so what's inside doesn't. I've seen this same case marketed under the Winchester brand and sold at Dick's.
I used an electric meat carving knife to cut out the foam inside for the shapes I needed. I use it with a few different SBR uppers, and one used to have a carry handle, so that's why it's cut out for that. The foam is a little on the soft side, especially after cutting it up, so I plan to get more rigid foam and cut it out to shape like this. I had my 11.5" 9mm upper with the Vortex on it, so I didn't swap it out for my 11.5" 5.56 upper just for the pic. I also have three Hardigg Storm cases, one dual M16 case that I'm working on new foam for, and also their M4/Beretta case that's pre-cut. I also did some cutting on that one so it fit a variety of AR's, but still offers good protection. It's just longer than needed for my SBR.

That's the same case I'm using two posts up, but it looks like it's just marketed under another brand. The foam I cut out for my SBR is egg crate foam on the other side, so I just fipped it and cut it out. I live in a Commie state, too (MA), but at least we can still have MG's, SBR's, AOW's and SBS's (as long as they came from the original manufacturer that way). Can't have the P-Mags you have, though. |

I just did this over the weekend. I bought a tennis racquet bag from Dick's on sale for $30. It is supposed to hold six racquets. I used hot glue to attach a $5 iso mat to the inside of one side to reinforce the case where the rifle will be. I can fit six mags, 200 rounds, eyes, ears, targets and have some room to spare. I used a 14.5" middy for the pics and I had to take it apart. Before I added the padding I could fit it whole. I can get a 20" upper and lower in there too. I mainly did this for a 10.5" barreled SBR that I am waiting on the stamp for. This will make a nice case for when I just want to take one rifle out for the day. I got the idea from threads like this. I almost bought a LaRue covert case, but when I went and checked out this bag it seemed pretty well made. I am sure the LaRue one would last longer but I kind of wanted to do this little project for the fun of it. When I wear this one out I will probably buy a nice discreet case. I am pretty happy though for $38 dollars in materials and about a half hour of time.

I did not even think of that, thanks for pointing that out. The case has a little padding but I have no doubt the rifle would have printed when the case was loaded up with everything else.

I was looking for a discrete case to prevent attention while carrying my 11.5" in my truck. It's a Prince 6 racket case. I need to add some foam for rigidity, but I think it will fit my needs very well.
Hopefully Ray Ray won't see this as a high priority theft item.

I picked up this Bulldog case for $30 today from Knob Creek gun range. It's not the greatest but I was super excited when I got home to realize both my SBR's will fit in there! It's a little snug but a hell of a bargain for $30.
Looks like it's only $25 online HERE. It's looks like it was made for a standard model to be broken down but it works great for my 7.5" and my 10.5". I think a 11.5" might be over the limit though. FWIW, the packaging said it floats! LOL
