Hi Vikas,

Other than the fact that the inletting is a lot neater than the IOF product, there isn't anything else I can tell from those pics.

Is your rifle inaccurate? If not, I would just let it be.

Just uploaded photos of the gun case that I got made in my profile.Made from scrap left from the recent wood work that I got done and partly from a very old bed.Sides and partitions are sheesham and teak the bottom and top are board with teak ply laminate.Lined it myself and got the chamber brush and cleaning rod(handles are sheesham scrap) with the detachable handle made form a machinist.Cost was 2900/- including labor and parts.Like all wood boxes,it is heavy.

Photos are with a mobile camera so not very clear.Still on analogue :lol:

Good job penpusher. You've inspired me to get off my behind and build one that I've been wanting to for quite sometime, maybe in the winter ;)

Hi Guys,

I had got this Gun Box made for my 0.22 Krico.

Material used was half inch waterproof plywood and the wood was given a high end PU finish.I did not use any padding.Used only one ordinary wardrobe lock in the center.This case was very sturdy,not to bulky and served me well for about 10 years.

Regards,

Vinayaka

hi pals,

Also look at my gun cabinet , actually i made ift for the purpose of gun case but it went very heavy to carry , because of teak wood i used , so it fixed it on the wall and made it a gun cabinet instead . i used a three pointlock to secure comments of the freinds are welcomed.

regards
