TuffPak for sale, $275 + shipping and includes a Tuff sack. (New list for the case is $355 and the Tuff Sack is $55). The case has the soda machine (round locks) and is in very good condition. The exterior shows the scuffs etc. from at least two trips to Africa and one to the Artic but there are no stickers, etc. on it. The Tuff sack looks like new. I'll even throw in the Air New Zealand keychain that's shown in the picture. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v214/Fjold/Guns/Tuffcase.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v214/Fjold/Guns/Tuffsack.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v214/Fjold/Guns/DSC00861.jpg)

I just listed a TuffPak with Tuff Sack in the Classifieds.

Can't go wrong there, the Tuff Pak is the best gun case in the world IMO..I have had mine for about 25 years and it's been to Africa over 50 times I guess..It is just like new short of being a bit skinned up on the outside surface..You also don't have to open your case for the world to see..Just lift your guns up far enough to check the serial numbers..I engrave the serial number on the trigger guard so I just lift them to the trigger. I also write the serial number on a piece of tape and stick it to the recoil pad..That works about 98% of the time, unless you get the wrong custom guy...I explain to the African official that I did it for his convience..They are a polite people by nature and are appreciative if approached in the right manner.

People either love 'em or hate 'em. I had no problems with mine, but I've only used it once. I didn't overpack the Tuffpak, and my rifle slid in and out of the softcase easily. I could see where if you really jammed stuff in there, that it could be tougher to get the rifle in and/or out of it...but I had no problem. I used the extra space for shirts, socks, hats, gloves, etc in the Tuffpack, as well as binoculars, batteries, etc.
I cannot speak to problems with the TSA, as some have had. Mine has the old, non-TSA type locking cylinder.

Just out of curiousity, if anyone has shipped a Tuffpak, what did it cost? My wife was quoted $70 to ship one. I have one with the stuff sack that I would sell but that seems steep for shipping!
