Pelican1200 Case With Foam (Black)

Nice sturdy handle locks on it work really good

At first I tried to use the pick and shape interior foam to customize the case, but as I was doing it, I realized that I had removed so much foam that it wouldn’t hold its shape anymore. I saw someone that did this on YouTube, but he didn’t try to fit the power brick in there, which takes up a lot of space. Your results will vary, depending on what you try to fit in there. I ended up taking all the foam out (Except the perimeter foam) and everything fit nicely, and is pretty snug, so nothing moves around. There is room for another cable, the lens cleaning cloth, and other small things, next to the battery. The only thing that I will add is something that I think should have come with the AVP, but didn’t, is a cover for the lenses inside. I don’t want the strap, or any stray wire to rub up against them, especially if I splurge, and get the Zeiss lenses. This is about 1/3 of the price of the apple case, and half the size, so this will fit nicely in a travel bag or backpack. Plus, it’s a Pelican, so I have the peace of mind that It won’t get wet if I get caught in the rain, and it will survive a blow if dropped.

I just got my Pelican 1200.... it is perfect! I was concerned about the small size at first, but the depth of it makes it a perfect combination. I was able to easily pluck out foam to leave enough space for my Glock 19 (with an attached TLR 4 < Flashlight and laser pointer> with the upper rail pulled back in order to demonstrate even through airport X-ray that the gun is in fact unloaded just to minimize questions from TSA and being the extra cautious it also allows the original Glock lock that runs through the chamber all the way down to the handle to be run to dissipate any doubts to the fact that no bullets are in the gun . Also, I put a box of 50 9mm Luger bullets, and 3 clips. I put the box of bullets and 1 clip at the bottom of the area I had cut for the gun. The reason it all works out perfectly is due to the ample depth the Pelican 1200 has. Remember these boxes were thought to be used with equipment such as cameras which are more voluminous than a gun; thus allowing for plenty of depth. The bos seems strong, sturdy and the locking mechanism is perfect easy enough to operate but not so easy that a small child can open it. Also be aware that you will be needed slightly longer than standard shackle length on your locks for them to work well, The pelican is thick where the lock loops go through so you will need the extra size. If anyone wants to see photos of how the box was arranged to fit all the items mentioned. I am flying next week in US Air let's hope all goes smoothly.

Very sturdy and well made. My G45, mag and 25rnd box fit fine for a flight.

I was looking around for something to protect my Go-Pro HERO 4 Silver and wasn't finding very many cases that were reasonably priced and sturdy. I have a CJ-7 and expect to get bumpy, so I had to get something to withstand all types of punishment! I stumbled upon this after searching a bit and I already knew I'd want it. I've used the larger Pelican cases for years and they always get abused, but never fail! I ordered the black 1200 case for $39 after reading some reviews and dimensions. Within two days I was super stoked to have this case! It's sturdy and very elegant (for a box). After a couple days more of accumulating accessories for my Go-Pro I soon found out that the 1200 was just too small to suit my needs. I returned it (for sadly $7.45 shipping) and bought the orange 1400. I have to mention the Pick 'N Pluck foam is really cool and easy to take off and even replace! (They recommend 3M Super 77 adhesive, but it stays it pretty well without it)I've had the case for about two months now and and very happy with the purchase. The only thing that doesn't fit in here is my little pole I got for free to try out. It stores a suction, helmet mount, chest mount, handlebar, wrist, and a bag of assorted goods on one side. The other side has backdoors and floaty, a triple charger with extra batteries and wall charger, and my GoPro Silver 4. I still have more room when I eventually get another camera. It's a little more expensive than some of the softer cases, but when your camera is inside this thing, you can be confident it won't break!

Well built

This case is big, its bulky, and IT. IS. WATERPROOF. I bought this for a nice camera and all the accessories I usually take with it (3 lenses, 2 spare batteries, removable flash, removable viewfinder, spare sd cards in a case, and lens cleaning kit), and everything fits fine. I love the pull apart foam, as you can pull it out in small squares, at different depths if necessary, and even replace it if you messed up. My camera and equipment is safe and secure, and although I have never thrown it off a building, I feel like it would most likely survive the fall. I have had this is torrential storms, on rafting trips, and have even had it free floating in the river with me on several occasions, and the inside has never been dry.One thing I will recommend however, is to get some of those silica packets, and keep them inside the case, because since it is so waterproof, if you put something in a little damp, the dampness will never leave. This is a recommendation from the 'instruction book' that comes with this case.I know the case is a little expensive, but this is definitely the best choice if you want something that will protect your equipment from dust, water, and even impact.There is also a small hole for a lock on it, and then handle is a nice feature. The handle folds down into the case for storage and so it takes up less room in a bag, but feels firm when you use it to carry the case.
