I will come right out and say it: I’m in love with Pelican Cases. For 20 years I’ve used Pelicans in all shapes and sizes to carry gear around the world. The are strong, secure, water tight and have a variety of internal organization options. But since they are built for carrying expensive items, they can stand out as targets for thieves if you are using them for weapons transport.
Honestly, for the traveling shooter, a combination of bags and cases is the way to go. A hard case like a Pelican Air that can be locked with a soft case with straps that can be carried around inconspicuously makes for a good setup.
Of course, there are plenty of quality options for weapons transport – if I missed one, please mention it in the comments below.

SNEAKY BAGS CRB-S // Original Covert Rifle Bag SMALL 27″ – $140
The Covert Rifle Bag was designed at the request of armed professionals who were looking for the most discreet way to transport a ready to use weapons system in some of the worlds most dangerous environments, where the consequences of being discovered would be dire. We think we struck a nice balance here, because you do not need to dissasemble your loaded weapons, making them faster to get into action, while also having a profile that gives you extra time if you are under scrutiny in a denied area.
There are only so many ways to hide an object with a fixed set of dimensions. Change the object or use a version of camoflage that tricks the mind into thinking the object is something else. With external bungees and daisy chain for securing non gun items, rounded edges, and designed to be carried over-the-shoulder like a “quiver” or worn as a “backpack,” the CRB blends into environments where a traditional, squared-off, case might get “made” more easily. The CRB looks enough like a sports equipment bag or hiking backpack that it does not immediately scream “Gun inside here!” to bystanders.
