This Boyt case is not as good as a pelican case, but the reason I purchased it instead of the pelican I would normally get is because I do not think pelican makes a case that is this size, and certainly not at this price. I needed a case large enough for a 7-1/2" Ruger Super Redhawk, but there was plenty of extra room so I also put my 1911 and a ruger LCP in there as well. The Case itself is made well enough, I prefer the pelican style latches and the hinges are better on the pelican cases. I do prefer the solid foam this case has instead of the stupid pick and pluck foam which really only works well if you are putting something square in there. The pressure relief valve on this is pretty cheesy as well.When I came to cutting the foam to fit my handguns I took the thinner piece of foam from the bottom of the case and cut that instead of the thicker piece that is in the middle, and even then I ended up cutting my cutouts in half and sticking them back into the holes. Not cheap but it is good for the money.
