Introduction to SKB Rifle Cases

SKB rifle cases are an ideal choice for hunters, shooters, and gun enthusiasts looking for a safe way to transport and store their firearms. These cases are designed to provide maximum protection from the elements, including dust, water, and extreme temperatures. They are also constructed with anti-shock technology that helps protect your firearm from shock or vibration during transport. SKB cases feature heavy-duty construction with durable materials like high-impact polymer, aluminum or steel frames and hinges, and reliable locking mechanisms. These cases are not only strong enough to protect your firearms, but they also offer plenty of storage space for all your accessories like magazines, ammunition, optics, cleaning supplies and more.

Different Types of SKB Rifle Cases Available

SKB rifle cases come in a variety of sizes and styles to fit nearly every type of rifle. Read more about three popular SKB Case styles below.

The SKB iSeries line of cases offers an excellent combination of strength and security. These cases feature double wall construction, trigger locks, padlock latches, waterproof gaskets, and dustproof seals. The iSeries also features a unique Powerclaw latching system that secures the lid tightly without the need for additional hardware or tools. The interior is lined with soft egg crate foam that cradles your firearm while providing maximum protection during transport. This case is perfect for avid hunters or competitive shooters who want the best possible protection for their gear. The egg crate foam can be replaced with our custom foam to specs for a perfect fit.

Next, we have The ATA Approved 3I series which provides superior protection as well as an array of features tailored to meet airline requirements such as trigger locks and pressure relief valves. This case has been tested by independent labs to ensure it meets Air Transport Association standards for ruggedness and security. It comes in several sizes including 42 inches, 44 inches, 46 inches, 48 inches, 50 inches, 52 inches, 54 inches, 56 inches, 58 inches and 60 inches in length so you can find the perfect size for your needs.

Finally, if you’re looking for something lightweight but still tough enough to stand up to everyday wear-and-tear, then you may be interested in the SKB Roto Rifle Cases. These durable yet lightweight cases feature molded external bumpers that shield your firearm from bumps during transport as well as integrated wheels so you can easily move them from place to place without lifting them up or carrying them on your shoulder like traditional rifle cases require you to do. The Roto series also includes TSA approved locks which make it ideal for traveling by air or other methods of transportation where security is needed most.

Why Invest in a Custom SKB Rifle Case?

When it comes to protecting your firearms and other valuable items, investing in a custom SKB rifle case is a smart move. These cases are designed to not only be highly durable and reliable, but they also offer superior protection against impact, dust, moisture and more. The solid, heavy-duty construction of the case makes it ideal for travel or long-term storage.

For hunters and competitive shooters who are looking for a way to safely store their guns at home, custom SKB rifle cases provide added peace of mind knowing their firearms are secure from harm and tampering. Many of these cases include a waterproof seal as well as additional steel latches that provide increased security against break-ins. The exterior of these cases also come in an array of colors like black and tan to suit any style preference.

For those who require extra space and customization for accessories or ammo clips, some SKB rifle cases feature removable trays with compartments formed into the foam lining inside the box. Others can be customized by our onsite designer to specifically fit your additional accessories.

Protection against the Elements, Bumps and Jolts

SKB Rifle Cases are designed to provide the highest level of protection for your firearms. Their heavy-duty high impact polymer, watertight construction shields your weapon from the elements, ensuring that it stays in perfect condition regardless of the environment you take it into. You won’t have to worry about rust and corrosion damaging your rifle when you use SKB Cases; they feature O-ring seals and pressure relief valves to keep dust, dirt and moisture out. The cases also come with an automatic ambient pressure equalization valve, so they can adjust as needed to changing altitudes or temperatures. Plus, their hard shell is made of an impact-resistant polyurethane which helps protect your firearm from bumps, drops, and jolts. Your gun will stay safe inside our custom fit protective foam lining that guards against shock while inside the case. And when you’re done shooting, custom SKB Rifle Cases make it easy to transport your gear home thanks to recessed hardware latches, heavy-duty handles, and custom fit foaming.

How to Choose the Right SKB Rifle Case for You

Size is an essential factor when selecting the perfect SKB rifle case for your firearm. Consider the length of barrel and overall dimensions of your firearm before shopping for a specific rifle case model. A larger case may offer more protection and space for scope/sight attachments but adds unnecessary bulk and extra weight. It is best to find a well-fitting case that matches the size of your firearm comfortably and securely.

The material used in an SKB rifle case is also worth considering when making your selection. A hard-shell metal or plastic case provides maximum security from external elements such as water and impact damage while being light enough to travel around with ease. Soft cases are typically lighter in weight than hard-shell cases yet still provide adequate padding and protection which makes them suitable for storage in a vehicle or closet at home.


When it comes to transporting your firearm safely, having a quality handle on the outside of your SKB rifle case can make all the difference in terms of comfortability when carrying it from place to place. Look for well-padded handles that provide good grip strength or shoulder straps with durable buckles that will keep your load secure but manageable during long trips or hikes into off-the-beaten path locations.

Finally, locking features should be evaluated when selecting an SKB rifle case as this will give you peace of mind knowing that your firearm is safe and secure while it’s not in use or being transported between locations. Make sure to look for cases with two separate locks (keyed cutouts) so you have additional protection against tampering or theft if needed - particularly if you plan on bringing it along on-air travel carriers where higher security measures are required by law.
