So I took my brand new M&P 15-22 to the range for the very first time over the weekend. Broke out my rifle case, used many times to transport my Uzi to the range.

Whoops. The case is too short by several inches. Plus the pockets used to store the straight magazines of the Uzi of course don't work too well with the long curved mags of the 15-22.

What gun cases (bags) have you used for your M&P 15-22? And based on your experience, which one(s) do you recommend?

Thanks.

I just use a cheap plastic plano case i bought from dunhams for 24 bucks. Its a tight fit but it fits and thats with my reflex sight and front grip mounted. For my gsg mp5 i use an allen tactical softvcase that has five mag pouches that are wide enough to adapt to the curve of the mp mags. I think those ran me like 25 bucks.
 
Just search "gun case" (include the quotations) and a lot of topics will show up. The gun case I have sucks so you don't want advice from me haha
 
If you just use it to goto the range and home you dont need anything fancy. Personally i cant justify spending 160 dollars on a case. But dicks sporting goods has a delecent double rifle hard case for 60 that wouldnt be bad
 
I went with a 36 inch Plano all weather Gun Guard hard case with pluck foam.

I have a Condor 42" single rifle case I got for Christmas. I works good for me, my rifle fits good with a scope and bipod attached, plus the middle compartment is perfect size for my Tec9. If you have the 16" barrel you should be good with a 36" case, I had to get 42" cause 18" barrel + muzzle brake was too snug.
This is the one I have

I have an Uncle Mike's case. Got the 42 incher I think because of NewYorkistans law on fixed stocks.
It's a great case. Well made and only $35 at my local Herb Philipsons.
 
I usually like going incognito so I picked out a small range bag and break down my rifle before transport. I do own one of the bigger bags that include a shooters mat that's pretty nice. It's just real bulky maneuvering through hallways when loaded.

I also went with this style bag(s). 42" for my 20" RR and the 36's work great for the AR's and 15-22's. I have 4 all together. Great padding and tons of room for other gear & mags.
 
I use the Midway case. I think it is on sale right now. Whether it is in stock is another thing. It is a nice case and I have 3 of them. One for each family member.
 
My son got this one for his AR, and recommended it to me. I just picked mine up on Saturday. I prefer the discreet carry idea, plus I really like the back pack straps on one side. It leaves your hands free to carry other items. Each of the 2 pouches on the front hold 3 magazines, and still leaves room for other goodies.

I have one from midway. It was pretty cheap has pockets for mags and the 15-22 fit perfect
 
Thanks I'll check these recommendations out.

And yes I did search, but for case, and did not include the quotes around "gun case". The search I did returned so many results that even after searching the first bulk of the threads, I had not found what I needed.

Thanks again.
 
I have a discreet case that requires breaking down the gun also. In this new age I don't need someone freaking out because I am caring a gun bag and calling the cops.
 
I should have included a link to the Plano. So, here's a Amazon link. Click here.

I couldn't swear to it, but last year when I purchased the case I thought it was under $100. :confused:
 
This is my case. The way thing are now, I don't want people to know what I carry.
Out of sight, out of mind.

I highly recommend the Drago 36" Tactical Case. I checked around and found that this was the most useful and durable soft case that I could find for under $100. I purchased my 2-rifle (MOLLE-1005) through CheaperThanDirt for $70 + shipping. Of course they have many other brands similar to this case, but none beat the durability and pocket layout. I would have gotten the single rifle case, but it was only $5 less. Checkout the reviews on YouTube, too. ModGear Double Rifle Tactical Case 36" Black Drago Gear Made of 600D Polyester
 
There are many threads on this topic with pictures. I would too recommend Drago case referenced by Gonad. I have two one for a single and just purchased the double so I can take the 15-22 and AR to the range with one bag.

Great cases but there are many many choices.
 
It does pay to look around. You can find some great cases but don't pounce on the first one you see. Shop around,you can find "same cases" for half the price that are just as well (if not better) made and also can have some better features.
 
Since it's usually my wife's 15-22 and mine traveling together, I got the double 36" Condor bag. I can either carry both 15-22s or one 15-22 and my Colt AR. Has lots of pockets and will hold several 25 rd. magazines (or lots the dreaded .223 30rd high capacity clips:eek:). Generally I'm only going from home to wherever I'm shooting (normally my cousin's farm) so I'm really not worried about traveling incognito.

I know how stupid this may sound but, as far as incognito cases go, how cool would it be if someone manufactured a case like the one Antonio Banderas had in "Desperado". It was a guitar case with what looked like a real guitar inside, then the "guitar" popped up to reveal the goodies inside. That would keep the nosy folks clueless and possibly be a hit with enthusiasts.

Already exists, but I don't remember who makes it.
