Did the hard case come inside a cardboard box, or plastic bag?
I tried one and found it lacking. The plastic shell is good, but the egg crate foam is not of adequate thickness to keep contents from substantial movement (read airgun slide to the hinge side upon picking the case up). Additional foam could be added between the shell and egg crate foam, but costs (locally) as much as the case.The foam minimum thickness is 1/2", the similar Condition 1 cases have minimum 3/4" thickness.
