Regarding special shotgun case

[neon854 0]

Dear noble fellow hunters. I am addressing you with a matter of some significance to me. I hope very much for one or more responses. I'm a shotgun hunter from Denmark and am searching for a specific kind of shotgun case. My gun is a Baikal over/under 12-70 from the early 1980'ies and is, I believe, a little longer than usually. Thus, the two barrels are 52,5 cm. I would like to locate a short case for it, that is one where the weapon is kept whilst dissembled. This is to travel more conveniently, as I have no car. Preferably, it should have a strap and carry the parts in some kind of seperated compartments (to avoid scratches etc.). Now I wonder: what is the name of this kind of a shotgun case in English? Does anyone know where they can be purchased (new or second hand)? Best regards, Jakob.

I think they'd be called a traveling case, some people make the hard type, leather covered and lined with velvet, but here's a couple of soft type cases from Napier HERE not too cheap but then good things never are, should do the trick!

 

Or this at the Sportsman Gun center- HERE

Thank you.. But I was actually not thinking of a hard case but rather a slip or bag, so to speak..

52.5 cm is a short barrel. What do you hunt with it?

20 inches? not that short, seeing as most barrels seem to be around 22" i'd say it'd be a good length for work in an enclosed high seat, from a vehicle, or pushing through vegetation or under low branches

I think you had better read the thread again.

Under 24" for a shotgun means it's a FAC weapon in the UK.

You could have guessed right, perhaps.
