    Hard cases have a time and a place, and I have a few to use for that purpose, but soft cases are much better for just in and out of the ute and stashing behind seats etc.
    Do you check the oil and water in your car? Or run it out of oil and blame the manufacturer at x amount of years ? Why not check your gun bag over like your barrel or suppresor so many variables mines got a square stitch with a cross threw the middle doubled onto the same material and then threw 2 layers of material whos to say you didn’t give it a heave hoe one day (or a mate) to get it unstuck out of the car it just isn’t that bigger deal save your heart ache and claim insurance this is my exact issue with warranty vs insurance it’s exactly what insurance is for if people choose not to have it well more for them
