I also use 'Bore Store' cases for storage. Twelve inch for artilleries and ten inch for navies and militaries. I call the factory at (870) 449-5297. The case breaths well but is not sturdy enough for transportation type use. After getting the cases, I go to some curtain material place and buy some clear thick mylar. Then I cut that into 2.5 X 3.5 squares. Then I take the mylar squares and my new cases to a sewing place and have them sew the mylar to the sides of the cases. (Only sew three sides). Then I can put notes on the outside of the cases to tell me what Luger is inside. That way I know what Luger is inside the case without opening and closing the case all the time. As I said earlier, the case is good for storage but not sturdy enough for heavy use.

A question that I would like to present is "Is there a danger of the 'Bore Store' cases wicking the oil off of the gun"?
