Good range bags?

zappadragon · January 19, 2005, 10:15 PM

I need help. I am looking for a good range bag for my first gun. I plan on buying another one soon so it needs to be able to hold at least two guns. I am also looking for any combos out there. I need a good pair of ears too. Are there any kits out there for beginer shooters that come with the bag and eyes and ears?

Thanks

does anyone have the mini range bag from Galati International?

I got a really nice canvass range bag from Academy sporting goods for $17

I got a great range bag for about $30 at a show. It is made by a company called "Safeguard." I haven't been able to find them online, but friends in other states have said they have seen their stuff at shows as well.

Take a look at http://www.ishot-inc.com/

I just received my new i-shot Pro Shooter bag last week. It easily handles two handguns and even has a third gun pouch. It appears to be very well made and has plenty of room for all my range gear. At $55 it is a great value.

The Bagmaster Mini Range bags hold two pistols and eight mags. They're discounted at StraightShot Shooting.

Good luck.

This is a rubbermaid tool bag that can be had for $8 at Walmart. It is a great range bag for a 1 full size pistol or 2 compacts pistols. It is in the tool section of the store. Save the money and buy more ammo=more shooting.

I use a Bob Allen brand bag that I bought for $20 from Wal Mart.

It comfortably holds two handguns,four boxes of ammo,my muffs,shooting glasses,baby wipes,& some small crap in pockets that I've never used but carry anyways.

DEATHROW · January 22, 2005, 08:05 PM

Another vote for Walmart's tool bag. Bought one a couple of weeks ago and it works like a charm. Plenty of room for ammo, and two compartments for pistols. At $8 you can't go wrong. In the "tools" section of the store.

Here's another vote for the /rubbermaid bag At Walmart. I picked one up this morning. Promply removed the Rubbermaid tag and it looks and works great.

Whatever is in second place is a long way behind. Others I've used had fragile zippers and not enough room for my needs. Service is great also.

johnbt · January 25, 2005, 09:13 AM

I've used a large tool bag from Lowe's for the past couple of years and kept meaning to order a 'real' bag with padded gun pockets.

So who should show up at the last gun show but a factory rep from I-Shot. I was very impressed with the quality, so I bought one of the Tournament bags. As it turned out I saved a little bit on the price, eliminated the shipping cost and they covered the tax. (He said he'd be back at the next Showplace show if anybody is in the area.)

The Bagmaster stuff I have is excellent also, but I haven't run across one of their bags at a show.

I have a Galati and I like it very much. Very rugged and holds everything I need for a trip to the range (for two).
I got mine from RF Holsters . Ray brought it to a local show for me.
I also have a Galati bag for one of my shotguns. It's made from very tough nylon/canvas stuff with sturdy zippers.

greg531mi · February 14, 2005, 07:10 PM

Just got my Sportman's guide.....They got my bags I was selling in the early 90's, I keep three of them for my personal use, and are still in one piece today.
They have mag pockets on the outside and a center compartment for $9.95...

foogoo · February 15, 2005, 11:43 AM

Just found this, I will probably get it as a cheap range bag http://www.slickdeals.net/#p5755
