Re: range bag
I got this last year. It holds a ton of gear and is very well made. I highly recommend this bag if you have to carry a bunch of stuff.

Re: range bag
This is what carries my heavy range bag these days. Ordered it on line and picked up the same day at my local Walmart.

I don't understand what is wrong with "girly" things? Even at my advanced age I like the "girliest" thing of all "girly" things: "girlies."alvins wrote:maybe its a sign of too many guns or somthing.

Re: range bag
Due to my range bag (at one time was a heavy duty backpack) getting way to heavy. I went to a larger duffle type, with a solid base. And recently to the larger duffle AND the backpack.
Yea, I think I need to find one that that does a better job in separation of 'stuff' and weight distribution.

I got the Midway large deluxe range bag - I forget the exact name but that's close. Paid $39 during half off sale. It's a solid bag.

How about a used Walmart sack?

well i didnt want everyone to think i brought enough for a small army to the range. i use an old duffel bag now and its just not working anymore. i though about some type of rolling suite case.
Re: range bag
it couldn't carry the ammo that I bring to the range, let alone the other 50 or so items that are in my range bag.bootsdeal wrote:How about a used Walmart sack?

Re: range bag
The OP is looking for a "a rolley suitcase type thing" not just another "bag." I too have the large Midway bag, but it now resides on "a rolley type thing" It's quite small, handles up to 88lbs, and folds neatly in the trunk. Takes 5 seconds to unfold and put the range bag on, and away you go.


Re: range bag
I have one too. Use it to load & unload for CHL classes too. Good tool.

Carry 24-7 or guess right.

Re: range bag
I bought one almost exactly like that from ACE Hardware last year. It works pretty good, and I like the feature that allows the sides to fold down, but the darn thing takes up a lot of room in a mid-sized SUV. It would transport a lot easier if the handle was quickly and easily removable. I'm wondering if something like a small trailer hitch pin with a cotter pin would replace that bolt that the handle pivots on.....i8godzilla wrote:This is what my son and I have been using lately.

Re: range bag
I actually have the model that is sold by Lowe's (it is yellow). Unlike this one, it comes with two handles, one like the one shown on this one and one (stored underneath) that is used as a small tractor hitch. The handle comes off with the removal of a cotter/clevis pin.The Annoyed Man wrote:i8godzilla wrote: I bought one almost exactly like that from ACE Hardware last year.

I think you could very easily modify yours to make the handle a "quick disconnect".
