Does anyone have experience with these? They seem like a reasonable option for the price and appear to have a good combination of tough material, burly latches and decent weight.
In my mind, it's sort of between this and a BAM Cabine for a new (to me) Mark VI that seems like a keeper. I've got the original case now and, while it's better than some old cases I've used, it's pretty bulky and heavy and the horn doesn't stay perfectly immobilized in there. Looking for something compact and easy to carry around on the bus without sacrificing protection.
I also checked out the Hiscox, but it seems like it doesn't have as snug a fit inside as the BAM and definitely is a lot bulkier.
My main hesitations with the BAM are the price and the latches, which look abysmal and seem to have gotten some less than stellar reviews over the years. The Winter has big burly latches on the fiberglass case.
I see some older threads about these cases, but I'm not sure if they've changed at all since then or if the newer options are better.
Of course, I'm always open to other suggestions. Just looking for a protective case that's compact and relatively lightweight. Don't need a ton of room for accessories, etc.
