Bob Allen 16505 Classic 52" Shotgun Case - 600D Polyester, Olive Green & Khaki, Foam Padding, Self-Healing Zipper

The Bob Allen Classic 52" shotgun case is a straightforward, no-nonsense travel case built for hunters and sport shooters who need reliable protection without excess weight or complexity. At 52 inches long, it accommodates most over-and-under, semi-auto, and pump shotguns with room to spare. The case is constructed from 600D polyester—a tough, weather-resistant synthetic that stands up to truck beds, truck racks, and the occasional bump on the way to the blind or the clay course.

The two-tone olive green and khaki exterior works in the field and at the range, and it blends in far better than bright colors. Inside, foam padding cradles your shotgun and protects the stock and barrel from dings and scratches during transport. The self-healing zipper is a practical touch: minor damage to the slider won't leave your case hanging open, which matters when you're packing and unpacking in a hurry.

Bob Allen built this case for function first. It's not overstuffed with pockets or electronics—just a solid, affordable option for shooters who treat their gear like tools. Whether you're heading out for a weekend of upland hunting, driving to a trap league, or storing a shotgun for the off-season, the Classic case delivers dependable protection at a price that makes sense for working hunters and competitive shooters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this case fit my shotgun?

At 52 inches, the Classic case accommodates most over-and-under, semi-automatic, and pump shotguns. Measure your shotgun from the tip of the barrel to the end of the stock to confirm it will fit comfortably.

Is this case suitable for air travel?

The facts provided do not specify TSA or airline compliance. Contact Bob Allen or your airline directly to verify whether this case meets their requirements for checked firearm baggage.

What does the self-healing zipper do?

A self-healing zipper automatically closes small gaps if the slider is partially damaged or the tab breaks off, reducing the risk of the case opening accidentally during transport or storage.

What's the difference between this and a hard case?

The Classic is built from 600D polyester, making it lighter and more packable than hard plastic or aluminum cases, though it offers less impact protection. It's ideal for regular transport and field use where weight and ease of handling matter more than extreme durability.
