MJinesKalispel Cases -- Anyone Ever Had a Bad Experience with One?
I know this is a threadworn subject, but curious if anyone has ever had a negative experience with a Kalispel rifle case? Thanks.

mstarlingHave two Kalispels, one TuffPack, and one Pelican for takedowns. No negative experiences with any of them. Use the Kalispels and Pelican within the US.
The only permanent damage done by an airlines to a case is a hard hit to the edge of my first Kalispel ... left a dent. Still works, but reminds me that the airlines can damage anything.

lee440Mine has made numerous trips to Colorado and Canada(where it received the most airline abuse!) and it survived my trip to TZ last year just fine. They are plenty tough enough, but they do look like a gun case.

BuliwyfI have two full size Kalispel cases. The sharp corners of the case can make it difficult to use in the trunk or backseat of a passenger car. Kalispel are rugged and have protected my firearms.
I have been selling them for the past 24 years. Only "problem" ever reported was when a double rifle case got caught in a luggage conveyer and ended up with a severe bend. The rifles and scopes however were in perfect condition.
You can buy and use these cases with complete confidence.

MJinesI saw that posted on the their website. Pretty impressive picture in terms of a rifle being able to survive that in the case.
