Harbor Freight Apache 4800 Pistol Case Club Foam Insert

Case Club Foam Only to Fit Apache 4800 (Harbor Freight) - 6 Pistol Foam Set (6 Pistol) a.co/d/7EpwYzN

[@garyjohnson3912]

I have this case and foam and it is great. That slot in the middle that you found is for your desiccant. Look around should be a small little metal desiccant case. If you can't find it contact the seller and they will probably send one to you. I can tell you from experience if you have 6 guns loaded in this case with 21 mags plus another 6 mags in the guns for a total 27 loaded mags, that case will weigh a ton! And Lord forbid you have a bunch of steel guns in there like I do sometimes it makes for a very heavy case.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

Ah ! Gotcha. I didn't think about the desiccant tin. Thanks !

[@lenzielenski3276]

I have the Pelican case this was copied from with like 16 guns. Yeah, its heavy. The foam in mine is dice cut so can be fit to any configuration and is much softer and less abrasive than the clone.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

@@lenzielenski3276 I'd love to compare the two side by side, but I'm too cheap. The Apache case is a hard spend for me.

[@lenzielenski3276]

@@jimafcarbon4433 I got my Pelican (1500?) brand new for $50 from someone trying to sell me a bunch when I was a vendor at a camera show. I went to HF today and paid their $59 for their much smaller case. I counted, mine holds 16 pistols. I usually do pretty good picking up Pelican cases used on eBay. FWIW

[@Boye310]

They have a video on the site that explains what the different inserts do and how to adjust for bigger versus smaller guns.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

Funny, I just found that yesterday.

A lot of money but looks so much easier than picknpluck foam

[@jimafcarbon4433]

I'm juat cheap when it comes to accessories. I'll pay $1k for a handgun and put it in an $8 case. Somehow I talked myself into trying this one.

[@armadagunshow]

Looks like a hell of a case Thanks for sharing Have a nice day

[@jimafcarbon4433]

Thanks, I think I'll like it. It seems crazy to spend nearly $100 on a case. But even if it were only Glocks and M&P's, 6 of them would be $3k. So I guess $100 to protect them isn't too much.

[@armadagunshow]

@@jimafcarbon4433 sure, far from crazy

[@jimafcarbon4433]

@@armadagunshow I'm just cheap, I'd rather spend $$ on ammo !😎

@armadagunshow right you are sir. Right you are.

[@wayne-oo]

For $60 looks like a great deal !

[@jimafcarbon4433]

I'm just cheap. Or maybe I prefer to spend $$ on ammo 🤓 Something about spending $$ on this stuff that's hard for me to do, I procrastinate and debate, checking reviews over and over. It almost hurts to spend the money sometimes. But sometime afterwards, I'm usually really happy I have them.

[@goodwinml]

Jim, put all pieces back in. Paint top with your favorite color. Then pull out pieces. Much better look.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

There are more expensive versions that have colored material applied before being laser cut. Those look a lot better.

[@Mil-Spec_Mike]

@@jimafcarbon4433 Or just get some spray plasti-dip. Works great after a few layers.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

@Mil-Spec_Mike that's a good idea too. I was thinking that spray paint meant for plastic. Supposed to adhear well to plastic and have some flexibility. Or rhino liner. But the plasti-dip should work well.

[@Mil-Spec_Mike]

@@jimafcarbon4433 I have used it on many things. The spray is great for large coverage and is very easy to apply. Its basically a rubber coating. They make it in a dippable version as well that is great to recoat tool handles where the coating has rubbed off

[@jimafcarbon4433]

@Mil-Spec_Mike nice, I'll give it a shot !

[@jonleone777]

To expensive for foam. Costs mord than case did.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

You're not wrong. But even if it were just $200 Taurus and Bersas, it would be 10x the cost in guns. Throw a couple of Sigs, Glocks and H&K's in there. What's $100 for a case when you have $4k inside it?

[@MojoPup]

You pay for not having to cut it yourself. I've done a few, would gladly pay $60 to use my valuable time elsewhere.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

@@MojoPup I'd have to agree.

[@KavehMohamaddi]

​@@MojoPupHello my dear friend. First of all, let me clarify my position; The problem is not just money. Rather, it is the interest to create and build! I hope you make millions of dollars every minute of your life; But my dear friend, when Prince Harry takes the time to build a tree house for his princely children; If he had a point of view like yours, he would definitely believe that my time is more valuable than spending several hours building a wooden hut for my 4-5-year-old child. It's new whether that cottage is liked by R Chi or not! For my children, I can easily place an order and the most expert people can make such a wooden hut that exactly crosses my 4-year-old child's mind. From the time I spend on building a hut, I can earn money for several huts! 😄 But we see that he did not have such a view, because his world view is different. Don't measure everything with money and dollars! Maybe the person who commented first and we are talking about their comment; He did not look at the issue (contrary to your personal belief and mentality!) that paying 100 or 200 dollars for such a thing is expensive; which is 100 or 200 dollars and can be spent in more important cases! Why don't you look like this, maybe he believed that; When I can make it myself by spending an hour and enjoy both the passion of creating and the difference from people who pay the amount and order the product without thinking or a moment's hesitation. The difference between me and that group is that I use my abilities. It seems unlikely that I have ever made something like this. What doubles my enthusiasm is that; It seems unlikely that I will need such a device for many years. So now is an opportunity to make a device that may not be available again. This construction; Whether it's to save for a cent, or for a few hundred or thousands of dollars!! Dear friend, challenge, challenge and effort to create and build, even if 1 cent has material value; (For someone with a different world view than you) that 1 cent is worth billions of dollars immaterially. Although people with the mentality I mentioned; Their measure and measure is not money or dollars! Time is precious. Nothing in the world is worth time. But why do we waste time? Time is valuable and should not be spent in vain, how much valuable work did he do? Make money with the time we save! 🤦🏽‍♂️😑 Well, what to do with the money?! The whole effort of our life is to earn money and enjoy life. For many, one of the joys of life is this kind of work. that in their free time, instead of spending time watching entertaining KZbin videos or spending time on any other social media, they spend their time making tools or things that the only information they have is a photo; It is one-dimensional, and not in three dimensions or perspective. I hope I was able to convey the concept.

No, it's not an abrasive texture. I'm sure if you let too much dust and debris accumulate it could.

The foam insert is not on their website. I bought the case a few weeks ago and I did a pretty good job with the “pick n pluck” foam but it would be nice to have an additional configuration. Especially if the pieces are replaceable. Unlike the pick n pluck

[@christianhardwick6530]

The foam is as expensive if not more than the case at Harbor Freight so…..

[@jimafcarbon4433]

I got the case at 50% off. $30 and the foam was $60. I do like it though. As much as I'd like to think $90 is too much, full of m&p's or glocks would be $3k. So, perspective.

[@randominternetuser2888]

Seems you don't know the trigger down Glock storage trick. If the trigger is stored down (in the pressed not reset position), you won't have to check if it's loaded. FYI

[@jimafcarbon4433]

It wasn't stored, it was loaded, I pulled it from a holster. I store all my bolt guns uncocked. I probably only have 2 glocks that get stored. All the rest are loaded in holsters. AR's, most are probably hammer down, but I am not OCD on those. Good advice though, probably best to store all firearms in a fired / Hammer down / dead condition. Other than 22's or other rimfires.

[@DB-hj3uc]

Try reading the instructions BEFORE you start recording. Or better yet, watch the Case Club video where the nice young lady shows exactly where you're struggling here. Would make for much better content. Edit: Please, please go watch the Case Club video so you can properly set up your case... watching you guess and struggle is not helping anything.

[@jimafcarbon4433]

@DB-hj3uc Ill take the criticism, because you're right. But in my defense, it didn't come with instructions, but I wouldn't have read them if it had. I did see their video, after I made mine. There's is better, but I'm just a guy who posts stuff he finds interesting. Having used it a few times, I do like the case and would recommend it to others. Nobody pays me for this, I don't get anything for free. I just share my experience hoping somebody finds it interesting or helpful.

[@DB-hj3uc]

@@jimafcarbon4433 Haha, fair enough! I just ordered one of these cases and watched the Case Club video and was looking for other videos to see if anyone had any tips or tricks that worked better, which is how I found your video. Good to hear its working for you and that you recommend it.

Looks like this comment is a dupe, but no, I don't think there's any real worry there. Unless you allow dust and debris to build up. Then, much like holsters, there could be some wear.
