The Drake Waterfowl DW3110037 Side-Opening Shotgun Case provides secure transport and quick access for shotguns up to 52 inches. This tactical-grade case features a unique side-opening design that eliminates the need to remove the entire gun from tight spaces like vehicle trunks or storage compartments.
What Makes This Different

The exterior choke tube pocket keeps accessories organized and immediately accessible. Heavy-duty 600D polyester construction with reinforced stitching provides military-grade durability that outperforms standard soft cases.
