Bob, I have an old A & F case similar to your idea except it's a breakdown. And the straps have buckles. While it's old, and there is lots I like about it, it can be a pain to use because of memory in the folds of the leather. It won't stay unfolded!

My point? Make sure your's is soft, pliable leather that protects the gun but doesn't remember the fold.

The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia
