The Allen 3642 Pistol Tote delivers secure, portable handgun storage in a compact 11.5-inch profile that fits standard range bags and vehicle compartments. This lockable case accommodates most full-size and compact pistols while maintaining a low-profile design that doesn't broadcast its contents.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic soft cases, the Allen 3642 features rigid construction with lockable zippers that meet basic security requirements for transport and temporary storage. The Endura fabric exterior resists tears and moisture while the padded interior prevents scratches and impact damage. The flat dark earth colorway provides tactical aesthetics without the attention-drawing appearance of all-black cases.
Key Features
- Lockable dual zippers accept standard padlocks for basic security compliance
- Endura fabric construction resists abrasion and moisture penetration
- Dense foam padding protects finish and prevents movement during transport
- 11.5-inch length accommodates full-size pistols up to Government 1911 dimensions
- Flat dark earth color reduces tactical appearance in civilian environments
- Reinforced carry handle rated for loaded case weight
- Interior dimensions accommodate most pistols with standard accessories
Field testing shows the case maintains structural integrity through repeated transport cycles while the foam insert prevents slide marks and grip wear. The lockable design satisfies basic transport requirements in most jurisdictions, though users should verify local regulations. The compact footprint fits standard range bags and vehicle storage compartments without consuming excessive space.
