Sports reviews of Plano Protector Four Pistol Case

Customer Review: A case for all reasons
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Due to the rigidity of the design & plastic, combined with three (3) layers of foam inserts (2 of which are 'egg-case' surface shaped), this case can handle a lot of different tasks and do it well! Based on the fact that there are 3 layers of foam, this case, in fact, becomes a "2 protected layers" container.

Concerning my initial experience, I bought this case to protect a rather expensive gaging system and it is perfect for this type of application. Further, as an added bonus, I found that with the "2nd layer" I could also add a 12" x 12" by 1.5" thick "Grade A" granite plate (which weighs a fair amount)along with the gage. So, I have well over $3,000 of product that is not only proctected by this case, but this is a great carrying case, so these items are enabled to be portable (but protected) by using this case!

This would also make a great case for shipping or carrying lap top computers that need extra protection (can you imagine taking a lap top out in the field and having it better protected against dropping/rain/snow, plus having a second layer to protect any accessories?), assorted electronic devices or, of course, multiple hand guns (the original purpose). This case is somewhat water-proof (short of throwing it into a lake), so if you are carrying something that you wish to protect in adverse weather conditions, this is a great product.

Going one further on the hand gun issue...... Even though this is a "4 gun case" my thinking is that if you only use 1-2 guns in transit, the buttom layer is a great place to store accessories, ammunition, etc......

Plano does make great products, I have always had good luck with what they make and quality is definitely built into their product The quality of high impact plastic, type of foam used and the foam shaping (the 2 'egg-case' surfaces help 'grab' anything inserted, to better hold it in-place, as well as offering superior impact protection versus flat-faced foam)in itself is impressive! But, take it one step further....... All of the above, combined with a very good latching system and the ability to lock the handles to prevent theft (but more importantly, makes sure the case does not 'accidently' open-up). At the price you pay for all of these features makes this a case a literal "steal."

To sum it all up: You absolutely can not go wrong buying this product and you will always find a use for it!


Customer Review: This One
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Guns. Got lots of 'em. More than one way to carry 'em around. I like the high rise FBI tilt hip holsters. Some guns work well with an inside the pants holster. Ankle holsters suck. And nothing feels good in the small of your back. The real problem with shoulder holsters is that in a struggle, your right handed adversary has your gun right within reach; same with cross draw holsters.

But this box. Let me tell you what I do with this box. I carry my laptop in this box. All of the power cables, USB cords, SD cards, & USB thumb drives are hidden between the first & second layers of foam. The computer & DVD writer go right on top between the second & third layers of foam.

Laptop cases are expensive and none of them are as roomy as this one.

Customer Review: Another snap-happy customer
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Thank you to the peeps at Plano!

The 1404 Protector Series case is both affordable and well-made in the true spirit of fine quality Plano products. The hard case design makes this product compact on the outside and roomy on the inside. The egg crate foam offers excellent protection for even the most fragile of porcelain or glass. The perforated sheet of foam allows for a variety of uses including securely holding an object in place while the closed case is being moved, crammed, stuffed or otherwise man-handled into a cargo hold for travel. With this well-thought of design, I am confident in knowing that my artwork is protected to and from a show. These super cases make packing and unpacking for and at a show a snap snap.

Model showers, photographers, gun enthusiasts, fishing fanatics, anyone who is planning on hauling around delicate items for use in the field or traveling cross country will not be disappointed with the purchase and use of this fine product.

My personal thanks to the folks at Plano for another outstanding product!

Customer Review: Perfect for what I got it for!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I purchased this to place 2 paintball guns in. A tippman 98 custom & a tippman a5. They both fit on the bottom level just perfectly. Placed the Removable foam layer on top of that then placed the hoppers for both in the middle & 1 20oz. co2 cannister on each side of the hoppers. When I close the lid it's a little tight but the foam depresses after a few moments & releives a bit of the pressure & settles in quite nicely. Absoloutely perfect for this purpose. Can't really comment on durability at this point seeing as I still have it in storage in my basement now, but for $[...] with shipping included even if it lasts a few years to and from the paintball course & storage I would be glad to get another. It seems very sturdy, I haven't tried to test it much but when I got it & tried squishing it together with my hands from a few different angles, not really much movement so I'm happy as can be with the purchase. Would definitely reccomend this product.

Customer Review: Large enough to hold eight pistols
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

This case delights me! I feel no buyer's remorse, and I'm a fairly discerning buyer who values craftsmanship.

The clasps are sturdy and easy to open. The foam is sufficiently thick that my pistols are held in place and the clasps remain firmly closed without any play. Unlike some factory pistol cases, the handle allows plenty of clearance for my fingers to firmly grip the case. The plastic seems really resilient.

I can easily fit a BFR 500 S&W (7-1/2" barrel), a glock 22, an XD9 subcompact, and a Ruger LCP on a single layer of foam. This case will accommodate eight pistols if you don't try to pack in too many accessories. I love the fact that I need only one case (and a single lock) when I travel by air.

Finally, I was pleased to find out the case is made in the USA. What a perfect package! I have no reservations about giving this case my full endorsement!
