    Once we "nail down" the foam-type, and the foam cutout pattern, I think we'll be able to make a decent replica. Still hoping someone can take their foam, put it on a copy machine or scanner, and make a 1:1 image of the cutout for TOP and BOTTOM.

    Appreciate you getting length/width of the straps. Thanks for the GREAT closeup pics. To me, I would say the bottom was 3-pieces: A bottom "floor" and the 2 laminated pieces on top of it. (Do you agree ?) As to foam density, what could you compare it to ? What is it like ? What is it NOT like ?

    You are referring to Flambeau P/N 50042, right ? Wonder why Flambeau listed it as 15 5/8" x 4 15/16" x 4 11/16" (39.69 x 12.54 x 11.91 cm) ? (Perhaps these are inside dimensions ?) However, I'll take your word on the dimensions and Now that I know it fits, I'll order mine :cool: Please post...

    I've acquired an Eagle HSRC (Made in USA version). It seems to be missing the tie down strap that attaches to the webbing for the stock end (missing piece shown here, from a web pic) and 2 snap-in lammy suade panels (panels and web/strap shown here from web pic) Did the typical HSRC's...

    Last one on Ebay sold for $150 + shipping (and was GRAY, I think with the foam had a bit of wear and tear) I've asked a few of the Hide's "M24 Thread Followers" to keep an eye out for me. And yes, I have a "Looking for M24 Accessories" in the Wanted section...

    Yes, but think of all the time and money that went into generating the Mil-Spec for the case ? Not to mention the incoming inspection procedure, and test criteria. And then there are the foam inserts....those have GOT to jack the price up, don't you think ? Remember the old joke about the...

    I contacted Eagle Industries regarding the Drag Bag and HSRC (last produced in 2009) GOOD NEWS: They can manufacture them as an "OEM" order from the original designs if at least 51 pieces (each) are ordered. BAD NEWS: DRGBG-OD $965.81 each minimum order 51 HSRC-OD $1029.19 each minimum...

    Looks TOO much like the Flambeau case (even the place on the top Lower Right where an OEM nameplate would go)... Wonder if THEY are the supplier ? I think I'll try calling them. Would it be possible to give me the exact dimensions of the optics case ? or is the 18x6x4 as "exact" as it gets ?

    Here' the next size up. https://www.flambeaucases.com/index.php/site/details/50043 A little TOO big (18 1/4" x 7 1/2" x 5 3/4"), but closer to the 18x6x4 approx. mentioned by EODSIX. I figure I might be able to find the foam in sheet-form pretty easily. If I ask REAL nice, I might be able to...

    I don't have any opportunity to handle a "real" case or to look at the mfg. code stamp. All I have to go on is pictures not having a lot of detail. This one seems GRAY...unless it is just a bad picture. I'm trying to find a cheap blow-molded tool box that will "fit into the hole" in the...
