Did you know that your average EBR will fit into a 3/4 sized electric guitar gig bag with room to spare? The gig bag comes with backpack straps for hands-free carrying, and the accessories pouch will hold enough ammo to deal with the zombie apocalypse. Typical price is $14-$25.
One caution, the tactical accessories on your EBR should be limited to a small to medium sized scope and maybe a flashlight, although the flashlight can also live in the pouch. If your rifle is fitted with headlights, tail lights, turn signals, and a winged lady hood ornament, all bets are off.
Update: Starting the new year off with an Uncalanche! Thanks Unk, and it can only get better from here on out.
And if you don't mind breaking the rifle down, this looks even less like a gun case.

Once upon a time, me and my buddys were gonna play airsoft at a local field so we did what you described and walked over to the field. As we were walking a copper pulled up next to us and joking asked " what do you guyshave in there, a machine gun?" we laughed and lied to him but we were shocked that he spotted it so fast.
ReplyDeleteA thick, lumpy gun will certainly print through the bag. It's probably also not a good idea to bring your rifle to the guitar shop for a fitting. :-)
ReplyDeleteBut just think. You could be the only guy at the range with a fretted forearm, and tuning pegs for windage and elevation.
ReplyDeleteI assume that getting the padded soft-side cases avoids the print-through problem.
Some people would rather steal a Fender Stratocaster than a de-fender range-a-matic.
ReplyDeleteThe forearm on my H-P is fretted, lacking only strings. Maybe some ivory wings on the scope knobs, eh?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, when there's no rifle there, there's a Washburn.
ReplyDeleteUnderfolder AKs fit real nice in tennis racket bags.
