MTM Case-Guard Shooting Range Box

A fantastic product we’ve been running for a little more than a year is the MTM Case-Guard Shooting Range Box.

This thing is HUGE! It stores all of our cleaning equipment for multiple weapon platforms, as well as the parts and tools needed to make repairs if necessary.

The Shooting Range Box is great to take for a day of shooting, or a multiple day class located far away from help if your rifle goes down.

Most classes we attend do their best to help a shooter out in the case of a problem with their weapon, but the ability to have the parts and tools needed to make the repairs yourself is invaluable.

Even if you’ve never assembled your own rifle, just knowing and having the right parts could mean the difference between an experienced individual being able to fix your gun or not.

MTM Case-Guard Shooting Range Box

We primarily run this range box as an AR-15 / M4 platform and keep the necessary parts to completely rebuild up to two weapons, depending on where we’re going.

Obviously we don’t carry large items like barrels or even gas tubes, but the primary parts that have the greatest chance of wearing out, are all included.

Description

MTM Case-Guard Shooting Range Box

The upper section of the case features 18 different compartments for storing cleaning gear, two removable trays and is detachable from the lower section.

Releasing the clips on both sides of the case allow you to access the deep storage area underneath, which houses removable fork brackets that form a rifle rest to aid in making repairs and diagnosing problems.

Fork brackets are rubber coated, and non-marring for all you guys who care about gun finishes.

The case measures a whopping 25″ long x 11.5″ wide x 8.75″ tall, the lower section is about an 1 to 1.5 inches smaller in length and width than the upper section.

It’s made in the USA from chemical-resistant polypropylene.

What We Carry

For the sake of brevity, this won’t be an all-inclusive list, but will touch on the primary components of our setup.

Notes

MTM Case-Guard Shooting Range Box

Our only critiques of the range box would be adding a dedicated “deep” area for truly storing all sizes of brushes upright, and also coming in other colors, but that’s us being picky.

The MTM Case-Guard Shooting Range Box is available from Amazon for around $50, and is a great deal for this all-in-one range box that outperforms anything we’ve ever used.

Let us know in the comments if you’d like any clarification on what we’re carrying and why.
