Is anyone using one of americase two gun safari cases for African travel? I looked at them at SCI and liked how they have the guns supported, only downside I could see was 27 lb weight but still should stay under 50 with two guns.
Thanks

I've taken this case to Africa 3 times now and really like it. It is solid, well constructed, and I like the fact you don't have to pluck out the foam in order to get a good, tight gun fit.

I have many americase's and they are excellent.

Add the cover with your name with address and possible cell phone number stitched in.

Pick a color that you will be able to notice. I added a stitched figure to both end flaps. the cover protects your locking hasps from damage.

if you think that your gun will move around you can add some foam padding/or clothing to fill the gaps. I do this for my break down guns.

Easy to spot/see your gun case if someone is walking off with your gun case. this happens.

Thanks for the input JG and Bwana.I have a ICC case and had it in a concealment bag but airlines usually never send it to the right area with the other guns. Last year in Atlanta it didn't show up at customs so I started looking for it and found it laying out in the open by oversize baggage. I took it back to customs and they said they were going to fine the airline. This has happen a couple times so I think I will go with the Americase.

Yes. I have several of them of different designs. I love them. They have been taken all over the world repeatedly.

One thing I do to help my airline gun cases stand out is to buy skateboard decals (really large and colorful) and put them on both sides of the case.

I have a 3-gun Americase. It protects contents well, but with 3 guns inside it's just too heavy. I think it's 27 pounds empty and 3 guns puts it well over 50. I've also got a single gun Americase that I like much better.

My Americase is the two gun with the rifles upright. Don't know the model. It looks like my old beat up pickup now, but it is a tank and nothing has ever been damaged.

I picked up one on ebay used, its been to Africa with me once and heading back this fall. I also used it to ship two safari rifles to gunsmith, just slapped a ups sticker on it and mailed the keys to the smith. They are fairly indestructible and protect your guns well.

Thanks for the info, it is great to have this forum to get advice!!
