Transporting a pump-action shotgun safely requires a case that balances protection, quick access, and premium materials. For hunters, range-goers, and storage-conscious owners, the right case preserves finish and function while offering practical carry options.

DESANTIS GUNHIDE Kurz is built around the widely used 14″ pump-action platforms chambered in 12 and 20 gauge, giving you a purpose-designed solution for common field and home-defense shotguns.

The Kurz Case uses premium center cut cowhide trimmed with full grain saddle leather, delivering durable abrasion resistance and an attractive, long-lasting patina. Its ambidextrously configurable nonslip shoulder strap means comfortable, secure carry whether you slung it on your right or left shoulder. A removable gauge-specific ammunition carrier keeps shells organized and accessible without rattling or shifting during transport. Shop this product

Design and materials that matter

Leather construction isn’t just aesthetic. Center cut cowhide gives consistent thickness and strength across the panel, while full grain saddle leather trim reinforces stress points like closures and handles. For owners who value a premium look and reliable protection, the Kurz’s materials resist wear from loading, unloading, and transit. The nonslip strap is a practical touch for early mornings or wet weather conditions.

Fit for 12- and 20-gauge pump-action firearms

The Kurz is tailored to accommodate popular 14″ pump-action shotguns in both 12 and 20 gauge. The 12-gauge remains the workhorse for hunting and defensive use due to its wide ammunition selection and stopping power; the 20-gauge offers lower recoil for smaller shooters or extended shooting sessions. The removable ammunition carrier is gauge-specific, so shells are held securely and presented for quick reloads.

Model listings are indicated as Various to support a range of pump configurations, and the Desantis Gunhide name reflects decades of leather-goods experience. Pricing is straightforward at $123.99, making this a solid middle-ground choice for those wanting premium leather without boutique markup. View product details and pricing

Practical considerations before purchase

Confirm the exact pump length and accessories you carry (light mounts, sling studs) to ensure a proper fit. The Kurz’s removable carrier and ambidextrous strap make it adaptable for range days and short trips.
