Peli 1720 Protector Case

The Peli 1720 Protector Case is engineered for one purpose: getting long guns from point A to point B in exactly the condition they left. Whether you're heading to the range, packing for a hunting trip across rough country, or shipping valuable equipment, the 1720 earns its place as one of the most trusted long gun cases available.

Built to Protect What You Can't Afford to Lose

The case is watertight, crushproof, and dustproof — a combination that means weather, baggage handlers, and off-road transport are no longer a concern. An automatic pressure equalization valve balances internal air pressure and keeps water out even when moving between environments. The O-ring seal runs the full perimeter of the lid, locking out moisture and dust down to the last grain. Whatever is inside stays protected.

Available in two foam configurations: No Foam — a clean, empty interior ready to accept custom foam, a purpose-built liner, or your own organisation system — and With Foam, which includes a 3-piece foam set that can be cut to cradle any long gun or rifle configuration precisely.

A Shell That's Strong Without Being Heavy

The open cell core with solid wall construction gives the 1720 its characteristic combination of rigidity and reduced weight. It is significantly lighter than cases built from solid polymer, yet every bit as protective. The casing absorbs impact rather than transmitting it to the contents — a critical detail when the case is checked as hold luggage or loaded onto a vehicle.

Double-throw latches keep the case sealed under pressure and spring open cleanly when you need fast access. Stainless steel hardware and padlock protectors at each latch position allow you to secure the case with standard padlocks — the default requirement for airline checked firearm transport in most countries.

Easy to Move, Even When Fully Loaded

A pair of strong polyurethane wheels with stainless steel bearings runs along the length of the case, handling uneven terrain, loading dock lips, and rough floors without complaint. Fold-down handles at both ends allow a two-person carry when the case is at full weight, and the primary drag handle folds flat to avoid snagging on tight overhead compartments or vehicle racks.

Colour and Configuration

The Peli 1720 is available in Black and Olive Green, each offered in No Foam or With Foam configuration. Colour choice has no bearing on protection — both finishes use the same polypropylene construction and carry the same lifetime guarantee.
