1400 Case With Foam (Black)

This is a great solution if you have a piece of equipment that needs a special case. We simply tore out some of the squares (perforated) and made a nice little nest for our ozone machine that we travel with. Tip - don't get carried away. You can't put it back together if you tear out too much. Do a little and keep testing as you tear out the cube pieces

I bought a cheaper case from a different manufacturer first that explicitly stated "The Cabela's Armor Xtreme Molded Pistol Case has been modified so that the hinge pins cannot be removed when the case is closed." When it arrived this was not true and the hinge pins could be easily pushed out, while closed/locked, with a paper clip. That makes that case completely useless for secure airline travel. I learned my lesson and bought this Pelican like I should have done in the first place. This Pelican case arrived yesterday and it is perfect. The hinges use a one way pin that is difficult to remove without time/tools and the case closes and locks securely. This size is a bit large for transporting a single full frame handgun but I wanted the option of storing one handgun, three mags, and two boxes of ammunition (check your airline regulations) or two full frame handguns with magazines. The 1400 fits a full size M&P9, three magazines, and two 20 round boxes of ammunition with plenty of padding to spare... probably enough to include a light. If you want to go smaller, the 1200 will fit a full frame with two mags nicely but with no room for ammunition. FYI : A 38mm padlock was the sweet spot for the size that would lock this case but with as little wiggle room as possible. When locked, attempting to open the case will only allow it to open a few millimeters - only exposing the inner ridge of the case. So, no worries about anyone trying to pull something small out through the crack. I'm sold on Pelican from now on.

Picture notes: the stack and side by side are 1150, iM2050 and 1400 (smallest to largest), then the 1400 with Sony A9 and 24-70/2.8 & 70-200/2.8 GM lenses, finally, the wonderful Dakine Mission Pro 25L, which will just barely swallow this Pelican 1400 case, your ski goggles, and some lunch if you eat light. On to the review. I would not exactly call this case 'small', but if you're needing to travel with a full frame camera or some lenses, and don't need a big roller, this is a great option. I have what is arguably the largest option Pelican makes that you can carry on a plane without risk, the AIR 1535, but I don't always need to carry my whole setup. Sometimes I'm content to stick my primary body (Sony A9) in my bag and take a few lenses, and this case fits that bill great. My pics are mostly to give you a view of the size; ultimately I didn't really like the pick and pluck foam fit, so ordered custom from mycasebuilder. I'll try to get some more recent pics with that installed, but you get the idea. The case's inner dimensions are large enough to adequately protect two big lenses, or a body and big lens, some batteries, etc.

I own many different Pelican cases in all sizes. As with all of them, this is excellent quality, super robust and every little detail works and fits. The foam is pre-cut and easy to take out section to make it fit your equipment. These cases are made to last. The materials are nothing like the cheap cases from other manufacturers. The handles, hinges locking mechanism, just everything is made to withstand abuse and any temperature. You can drop them in the ocean or leave them out in the rain or snow. But what many people forget, these cases are also excellent for dirty and especially dusty environments. Delicate equipment is save in any environment. Since they are also air tight, it is possible to keep your equipment dry (using Silica gel) in environments of very high humidity. You really can't go wrong with Pelican cases. They might be a little more expensive than other cases but they will last you many many years, maybe even a lifetime thus making the initial investment absolutely worth it. The only downside is that they are not the lightest cases available. The design that makes them so robust also adds extra bulk. If your priority is light weight and size this type of case isn't the ideal solution. For anyone else I highly recommend them!

This is the Pelican case to get if you have a full sized handgun. It's big enough but the case is still a very manageable size to carry your gun and a few spare magazines. It's deep enough to store some magazines vertically. Compared to the 1170 case that a lot of people get for handguns. It's just a tad larger and a little bit deeper. I have a full sized revolver with a 6 inch barrel, that would not fit in the 1170 case, and my .45 pistol was too tight a fit in the 1170 case as well. This Pelican 1400 is just right for guns of that size. This case has the pickable foam so you can make it fit anything you like. Whatever you have, make sure you measure the gun and note the inside dimensions of the case to be sure it will fit. But this case can handle many of the more full sized guns that the 1170 cannot. It's a very sturdy, lockable case. Highly recommended.

This is actually my second Pelican case. I bought this specifically to travel on planes with my Glock 19. To ease everything, not only do I have the gun unloaded but I keep the slide locked back and put a chamber flag in it. This is especially good because I leave one empty magazine in the gun so this insures safety because the gun can't physically fire with the slide locked back and a chamber flag in it so it eases tensions. The case is deep enough that I can stack two magazines in the same spot. There is also enough room for a suppressor (if I'm traveling somewhere that allows them). This thing is durable. You can throw it, kick it, hit things with it and it will hold up. You can spray with a hose, throw it in the pool, etc, and it will protect your stuff. This means that it will survive molestation when it's in your checked luggage and they are literally throwing it into a pile with other checked luggage. The holes on the outside are large enough for a wide variety of TSA approved locks. I have absolutely no complaints about this case.

So I bought the Pelican 1400 to make it into a traveling humidor and such I will review it based on that. First off the case is solid. I am pretty sure I can drop it off a building and it would be fine, but with that is it is a little heavier then I probably would have liked over all. The foam inserts I did remove but if I was to use this for a gun or transporting something else it’s easy to configure the foam to what you need. All the foam was removable including the top price. On if it’s waterproof. I have no doubt it is. This isn’t my first pelican and never had a issue with water getting in. So if you looking for a solid case you can’t go wrong with this pelican.

So this is a pelican and obviously sturdy. The pick and pluck foam is very easy to mold to your liking. If you need to add height to something for asthetics, just insert some plucked foam underneath the item you are securing to elevate it. I can’t believe I just secured 3 Glocks and their respective extra mags with room for accessories, ammo or another firearm in this case. For those wondering about roominess inside for firearms; I have a Glock 21, 19 and 30sf with rail laser (top to bottom in the pic respectively) with two rows of the foam between each, and the mags spaced nicely near each one. Each one in the photo actually has a mag in it raising it up some so if you want it lower it will go down further without the mag in. This case would also make storing GoPros and other camera accessories a breeze. Carrying it on an adventure might not be as easy but I have a waterproof book bag for that. If you’re looking for storage that you can lock; I can highly recommend the Pelican.

Great product & quality, does it job well..!! Highly recommended..

Lo compré para proteger mi Drone. Es un mavic pro. Este case, sirve, porque viene con el foam, que puedes moldear a tu conveniencia dependiendo cantidad de baterías y accesorios. A mi me llega a guardar el drone, con 3 baterias, el cargador, el cargador para coche, el control remoto y helices de repuesto. La verdad que cuesta mucho menos de lo que se venden otros cases de este tipo especificas para drones. Lo recomiendo mucho.

Pelican cases are very well made… and very expensive in Canada!
