Shortening a gun case..


Rance - SASS # 54090

Recommended Posts

Saw many a thread on here wondering where to buy shorter guns cases... (the soft cases)

Seems the short ones to fit our shotguns and rifles are hard ta find..

 

Took me about 20 minutes ta do this job...

Been thinkin' about this fer a 'bout a year..

 

Took my rifle case... laid my rifle on top of it.. made a line with a magic marker on the length I wanted... curve I wanted..

I had some Tandy Leather rivets & eyelits...

I drilled holes with a drill bit in the reverse mode of my drill but..

a leather punch would probably work just as well if not better..

 

Put an eyelit it the first hole.. ta hang it up with... then put about 5 more rivets following the line I had drawn..

By the way.. make sure your zipper is closed before ya start..

 

Got the rivets in.. took a super sharp 1" wood chisel and cut off the excess..

Vawalla!! shortened gun case... may try some more...

 

Rance ;)

Thinkin' I saved some money & made use of gun cases I already have..

Good luck.. :)
