Product Details
The Magpul DAKA Hard Case LR53 solves the common failures of traditional long-gun cases by delivering a stronger, easier-to-use, and more reliable system for transporting and storing rifles and shotguns. Built around the DAKA GRID Organizer, the LR53 provides a premium storage solution optimized for protection, organization, and durability—inside and out. Streamlined and easy to maneuver, the LR53 eliminates common snag points that lead to case damage and poor handling. Advanced injection molding, improved latch geometry, recessed lock housings, ergonomic handles, and smooth-rolling wheels work together to create a hard case that protects better, handles easier, and holds up to hard use in transit, travel, and storage. Designed specifically for long rifles and shotguns, the LR53 comfortably carries one or more long firearms along with the additional equipment required for transport, training, or extended travel.
