Hey everyone!
So for this post I’ve partnered up
with the awesome team at Military 1st to look at some of the high
end real steel rifle cases on the market that are suitable for Airsoft use. As
many of you know I am a massive fan of hard rifle cases but as I’m planning on
taking on more realistic games where all my kit needs to be carried on me at
all times I need a case that is lightweight, folds down, can be worn as a
backpack and has multiple uses. This is where the Wisport Rifle Case 120+ MultiCam comes
in.
Let me introduce you to Wisport – they
are a well-known manufacturer of high quality outdoor equipment for outdoor and
firearm enthusiasts ranging from backpacks, rifle cases and, would you believe
it, even socks! They have extensive ranges in multiple camo patterns which I
think makes them a great choice for Airsofters (we all love matching gear,
don’t lie!). The Wisport Rifle Case 120 + is made of an extremely durable and easy to
clean Cordura material that is available in a tonne of camo options including
Olive Drab, Ranger Green, A-TACS FG, Black, Pencott Snowdrift, A-TACS IX,
A-TACS AU, A-TACS LE, Brown and MultiCam. Of course I chose the MultiCam option
so the case would match all my Tac Gear, especially for when I play NATO during
a MilSim. I think that is one of the best things about this case – the sheer
variety of camo patterns that Wisport have made it available in means that it
can suit any loadout!
One of my complaints in the past about soft cases is the lack of space
but I was pleasantly surprised with the Wisport 120+! The case has a roomy zipped
and buckled main compartment with two large zipped outer pockets and with the adjustable
system of straps it enables the user to wear the case as a backpack or
alternatively over the shoulder or simply as a handbag by its handle (check out my Instagram for more images of the case being used!) The adjustable
shoulder straps are SUPER useful, as they allow for a really quick adjustment
and they can be set to the height of the shooter - lucky for me as I’m quite
small, measuring in at just 5”4! It’s also pretty awesome to see more and more
companies offering products that can be adjusted to accept a smaller shooter.
Although admittedly the case does dwarf me a bit when worn as a backpack – you’ll
see what I mean when you see the photos at the end of this review!
Let’s chat about the storage capabilities this has! So each of the
individual front pockets has a large compartment with additional sleeve pocket
on the inside, a zipped pocket on the outside and a set of two straps with
quick-release buckles so you can mount extra equipment. The extra sleeves in
these pockets ensure that you can keep things separate when needs be. The
bottom pocket has space for a Velcro patch and inner meshed organizer with zip
closure which I think adds a really nice touch and gives the user the option to
tag it with their favourite patch!
One of the things that make me somewhat nervous about using a soft case
is the security it offers the RIF during transportation, but inside of the main
compartment the case, it has elastic bands to secure the RIF, Nylon straps with
buckles, D-Rings and most importantly 1.1" soft removable sponge padding
to keep everything safe. One really cool feature of this case is that because
of the padding, it can also be folded out and used a comfortable shooting mat –
making it a great option not only for Airsoft but also Air Rifle shooters who
not only need a case but a comfy, easy to clean shooting mat.
In terms of size the case is really generous and measures 49.2"
(125cm) long, making it a comfortable fit for most guns, but in the case of transporting
extremely long-barrelled guns, the case is also equipped with additional hidden
inside pull-out pocket which is located at the top and secured with zip closure.
The pull-out pocket extends the overall length of the cover by an extremely
generous 9.8" (25cm) and this means that the case can provide comfortable
transportation of weapons that have a maximum length of 57.1" (145cm). I
was able to fit both my ASG Scorpion EVO and G&G CM16 SRL. The case itself
only weighs in at 2150g it is super lightweight and therefore perfect for
wearing on your back as a backpack.
Let’s chat about the price, the Wisport Rifle Case 120+ comes in at
£109.95 from Military 1st so it is in the higher price bracket, but
if you’re an Airsofter who also enjoys other shooting activities then this
offers you a shooting mat as well as a case to store your RIFS in. The quality
of the material and construction of the product is nothing short of the
standard you would expect from Wisport – very high.
I took this case to a skirmish at one of my local sites in the Midlands
and was thoroughly impressed, to my surprise! The case fit snugly in the back
of my car, it fit everything I needed inside including 2 RIFs, batteries,
magazines, speedloaders and sights without being heavy to carry which means
this will be a good option for me to take to games where I need to keep all of
my kit on me, the shoulder straps evenly distribute the weight to make the case
easier to wear as a backpack. Overall, I am pretty impressed with the Wisport
Rifle Case 120+, even though it is a soft case it still offers a great level of
security for RIFs during transportation and storage. It’s packed with features
and the fact it folds out into a super comfy shooting mat is awesome! Although
it is a little pricey I think the quality of the product the price is
justified.
