Just saw an ad for these in the May/June issue of Shooting Sportsman.... anybody have experience with them? They look nice. How do they compare to the cases from Jeff's Outfitters? Prices are $200-Canvas, $380-leather, $500-leather/oak/brass Opinions? Thanks! Adam http://dissegear.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=8

Adam, if you can get a leather/oak/brass motor case for $500 and the quality is good, that is a relative bargain, best, Mike

The oak and leather side by side case says only for 20 and 28 ga. Not a lot of use for me since I don't own anything smaller than 16.

Adam, Thanks for sharing this with the forum. The maximum length listed is for 30" barrels. How short... Mark

They look great for the money. I just haven't figured out what to do with them. My guns go from my home safe into a slip and to the gun drawers in the truck and back, whether hunting or shooting clays. I have a pile of hardcases in various locations thruout the house, that never see the light of day.

The Disse's are obviously/probably another variation of the Hibo Leather Products Co. cases from Guangdong Province. Edge treatment variation on these between the corners appear to be one and same to one of the many featured via Alibaba. They seem to be the top producers by far. I'd like to see how they compare in durability of stitching and finish to some of the other overseas competitors who seem sparse, or to the other variants from the same producer. Ravi & Co. out of Chandigarh, India is making them but of only one style, not these. Hibo by far makes the most varied types. Not trying to bust anyone's business plan but they ALL seem to be from the same outfit, just different quality material options. Other than Huey, are there still any makers in the US? Wasn't there one a few years back making them in in Colorado who was a bit more affordable? Note: I did receive (and returned same day) a new canvas/leather case from an unnamed US vendor which case was verbally described as US-made but the partitions were literally stapled in and could be pushed out of alignment with a feather. Total junk and I doubted it was American. The above pictured variations, if actually Hibo, seem really nice and very well finished.

There's atleast two other case makers in the USA--and probably more. Here are the two I know of: Arno Werner in Maine: http://www.wernerdesign.biz/products_gun_cases.htmand FEI in Wisconsin: www.feiguncases.com

Man, that leather, oak and brass one looks like I should buy it just for itself, regardless what I put in it....had to stop and mop up the drool.
