A Gun Case From Harbor Freight! Budget Friendly and Effective

Check out part 2 here! Spoiler alert, I plasti dip it.

I've used these cases to store pistols, take them to the range, and even to fly with them. They are great cases for the price. Obviously not as high quality as something like a pelican case, but in my opinion the value vs cost makes these cases a no brainer. Cheaper than buying replacement foam for a pelican case in many instances.

These really are great for the money. Have one thats 3 years old thats been living in a truck, forgotten in the bed, rained on, exposed to chemicals, dropped, and opened/closed hundreds of times. Everything is still in great condition.

Thanks for watching. I do enjoy some cost effective options and I’ll definitely be getting another one.

Just got the 5800 (the wheeled version).... reg. 99.00... it was 1/2 off. Today only (may 13) and one to a customer. Maybe our California friends will see this and take a look at it. They are as solid as Rando says. Good video! Thanks for making this

I spray glue the 2 pieces of foam together. Then, flex seal the foam helps it from eventually coming apart after repeatedly taking stuff in and out.

I have that for range days!! Easy to remove the foam and tough case. Just layout how you want it before you remove the foam.

Case club makes a high density form insert, just pull the pieces you don't need and can put back in if you need them. I have it for my case as well.

Nice presentation. Right to the point, with no silliness. Not boring.

I have one of these. I wasn't crazy about the pick 'n pluck foam, so I ordered a custom insert for it and it looks & works great. I found a custom insert for a Pelican case that fit this one perfectly. You really can't beat the value of these cases. For a short time Sam's club sold a similar case for an incredible $20, but that's long gone.

Was searching youtube for Apache 4800 reviews and found your video, thanks. Heads up for anyone else looking at these cases - Monday May 13th Harbor Freight has a one-day coupon for 50% off any Apache case

I picked up 2 ex-military Pelican Storm case im2600's that originally held AN/PLQ-11 countermeasure set, for $15 each. So I do need new foam for my camera equipment or a drone, or whatnot, but they were a heck of a deal. Deals are out there, just need to look for them. The Apache cases aren't bad, maybe a little overpriced for what they are with surplus Pelicans out there, for certain sizes. I have 4 sizes of Apache 1800, 3800, 4800, and 9600. I would like to get a pair of orange cases for the car to hold road emergency gear like flares and jumpbox and first aid stuff. Overall not bad boxes but the ad propaganda of HF 'beats" all other brands is laughable.

These cases are extremely cost effective. Unless you are packing expensive equipment and expect to drop the cases on a busy highway or lug it through a rain forest, these are more than enough. I replaced the pick-apart foam with padded work mats from Home Deport and interlocking floor mats.

Bought this exact one for my 6 handguns back in 2020! Love it, and it's still my storage case. Works great to take to the range too.

I have one and I absolutely love it. I just hate that the phone is it dirty. It is really soft and it flakes off on to the fire arms sometimes.

Nice info. I just bought my first 9mm and will add more to the collection. That was a cool case. You never mentioned the coast,just that it was reasonably priced. Only thing i dont like about it was anyone could pick it up and walk off with your collection. An idea i had was i have wood floors in my house. Might look into lagg screws into the wood from the inside of the box then locks on the outside when closed. Really like the way you put them in. Most people lay them flat in between the two layers. Ty for the video. Good stuff.

nice review. Excellent job reenforcing safety, storage and transportation. You are a responsible gun owner!

I have that box and a couple other sizes. These are great. The price has gone up a lot but they can be had for a great price when Harbor Freight has their sales.

I love it when you ripple that texture.

Very nice case, very nice job, but the phrase "all your eggs in one basket" comes to mind. Don't let it out of your sight at the range!
