When transporting long arms for home defense, competition, or range duty, case selection is not a minor detail — it’s a mission-critical choice. A hard case that balances secure locking, weather resistance, and user-friendly handling keeps gear ready and protects investments from impact, dust, and moisture.

PELICAN Storm is built for that exact purpose. The case features a unique Press and Pull latch that locks automatically but opens with a light touch, giving positive security without fumbling at the range or in transit. It ships with six Press and Pull latches, two double-layered soft-grip handles for comfortable carry, four padlockable hasps for added security, inline wheels for smooth movement, an O-ring seal to block dust and water, and a Vortex valve to equalize pressure after altitude or temperature changes. Made in the USA, this gun case stands out for durability and thoughtful field-oriented design. Shop this product

Design and protection for defensive and range use

Hard-case protection matters for both defensive firearm storage and frequent travel to the range. The Press and Pull latches on the PELICAN Storm deliver predictable, repeatable locking action — six latches across the body provide multiple impact points so the case resists opening if dropped. The O-ring seal and Vortex valve combine to keep moisture and dust out while avoiding pressure-related lid pops on air travel or elevation changes.

Handling and security features

Two double-layered soft-grip handles reduce fatigue when moving heavier loads, while inline wheels and a reinforced base let you roll the case easily through parking lots or hangars. Four padlockable hasps give the option to add keyed or combination locks for storage or shipment. The case’s build quality reflects Pelican’s reputation; the brand and model variations offer size choices to fit rifles, competition rigs, or multiple gun loads.

Price-conscious buyers will note the PELICAN Storm is listed at $331.95 — a professional-grade case price that reflects its materials and Made-in-the-USA construction. For full specs and purchasing information, View product details and pricing.

Field-use recommendation

For defensive operators and frequent shooters, the PELICAN Storm’s combination of secure latching, weather sealing, and transport ergonomics makes it a reliable choice. Consider foam configurations to protect optics and accessories; measure firearms before ordering to ensure the chosen model variation fits bolt handles, magazines, and scoped setups.
