  • Welcome to The Home Tips Show! Today, we're excited to share our review of the Apache line of hard gun/camera cases. These cases are designed to keep your valuable gear safe and secure while you're on the go.
    We were impressed with the build quality of these cases. They're constructed with high-impact plastic and feature a water-resistant seal to keep your gear protected from the elements. The cases also include a pressure release valve to equalize the pressure inside the case and prevent damage to your equipment.
    The cases also feature a comfortable handle for easy transport and a built-in lock for added security. The interior is customizable and includes foam inserts that can be easily pulled apart or cut to fit your specific gear.
    We took the Apache cases on a hunting trip and were impressed with how well they protected our rifles, shotguns, and cameras. We also appreciate the customizable interior and pressure release valve. Overall, we highly recommend the Apache line of hard gun/camera cases for anyone looking for a reliable and durable case to protect their valuable gear.
    Thanks for watching! Don't forget to subscribe to our channel for more great tips and reviews.

    Thank you! Just bought me a Noveske 10.5 and 2 more S&W’s and been looking for a strong but not over priced cool guy case. Great review.

      Love the Noveske!!! Top of the line! Which S&W's did you buy. My dad just picked up a Sig P365XL Spectre Comp 9mm with the built-in slide compensator. He said it shoots so soft, nearly like a .22. He loves it. At 74 years old his grip isn't what it used to be so the perfect gun for someone a bit older or a lady in my opinion. It was expensive for a 9mm handgun at $1299 but he loves it.

    Phenomenal review, I think I’m just about sold on the Apache line vs pelicans. Thanks
    However the background music level was a bit overbearing and it made your voice somewhat hard to focus on.

      Thanks for the reply. Yes, I was having difficulty trying to figure out what db level to set the background music to. I have it figured it now I think if you watch any of my recent vids. Thanks for the feedback.

    Is the rifle case wide enough to pass for an electric guitar case? If so, some Fender or Gibson stickers on it would help deflect negative attention when you have to transport it through a public place.

    • @thehometipsshow
      @thehometipsshow  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s an excellent idea. It does have a bit of a textured feel to the case so it might take some creativeness to get the stickers to stick well. It’s 50 inches long by 14 inches wide and most people wouldn’t know if a guitar or camera equipment or telescope were in there.

    This seems like a fairly underrated protective cases company, especially when Pelican is ubiquitous.
    However, I don't trust Chinese made goods, especially when the company selling these cases is American.

    • @thehometipsshow
      @thehometipsshow  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Generally, speaking, I agree with your assessment of buying cheap, plastic, Chinese made junk. However, in the case of these cases, I’ve made an exception. I’ve been using these for over a year now, and they’re great. No, they’re not the most luxurious, brand name, expensive cases at the gun range. But, they’re practical, well priced, and keep my equipment safe, which is really all I was looking for. Maybe I’ll upgrade to a Pelican when I win the lottery :-)

      I know, I’m old-school. When I was a police officer, we were taught firearms certification by Vietnam, Korean war vets, who were taught by World War II veterans. They still used the word clip instead of magazine. I get corrected on this all the time. nowadays, when I’m at the gun store, and I don’t get corrected I’m surprised :-)

    🤔Apache and Pelican 1750 the same mold? Possibly the same manufacturer just rebranded?

    • @thehometipsshow
      @thehometipsshow  ปีที่แล้ว

      Could be, many companies do that kind of thing. Many of the Costco Kirkland products are rebrands. In our situation they do look very different but I don’t know if one provides more protection than the other. That would be a good test to see. Maybe someone has done that test on TH-cam already?

    • @thehometipsshow
      @thehometipsshow  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Son, in my day they were called clips. That started to change in the Midwest around 2000-2004. You’ll find that many older guys from the Midwest will do the same. We didn’t have podcasts in the 90’s. As a former firearms instructor for my police department, I can assure you I’m not a liberal.

      As a former police officer, I was trained by instructors that called them clips, not magazines! Just like Grandma calling the refrigerator the “icebox”, and the couch the “Davenport”. As troops came home from WW2 this terminology was used! Just go back and watch a 70’s or 80’s movie. To force someone to call some thing or refer to a person only by a certain pronoun…

    Why would you transport a concealed carry pistol in any of these for travel? That defeats their purpose. You should have the ccw on your person not locked up in a box in the back of the truck/car/ect. Unless you have multiple options for say winter carry and summer carry and the wife’s versions also then always make sure one is on the person the rest can be in a box…

    • @thehometipsshow
      @thehometipsshow  ปีที่แล้ว

      Good question. You can’t carry any type of weapon into a gun range unless it’s enclosed in a case. CCW or not, it’s not a good idea. Also, if have multiple CCW guns you want to practice with, as most of us do (I have Four) you can’t bring them in without a case. Every person that works there is more than likely armed. That’s how people die. Additionally, gun reciprocity laws vary from state to state, so you are best to have your guns put away in a case unaccessible to you. Additionally, all of these cases lock. If you have children in your house and you don’t have a gun safe this is a good option for you. Also, here in North Carolina were an open carry state, no CCW necessary unless you want to conceal it. Even with a CCW you don’t have an open license to carry it everywhere; certain government buildings, airport travel requirements, liquor selling establishments, etc. I agree that you should have a secure place in your car for a gun safe, but many folks just want a safe place to store their gun so it doesn’t get scratched up when being moved around. For example, I have my grandpa’s 1967 Winchester 20 gauge over and under which if it’s not in my hands, it’s in a case.
