Watertight 42" Gun Case with Wheels
The Pelican 1720 is a watertight, dustproof and crushproof transport case built from ultra-high-impact structural copolymer. It is designed for shooters and professionals who need to move long firearms or sensitive optics securely. The charcoal black finish resists corrosion and chemicals while the automatic purge valve equalises internal pressure during altitude or temperature changes.
Thermals, Noise and Power Draw
The sealed copolymer shell and pressure-relief valve protect contents from moisture, dust and sudden pressure shifts without any powered components. Double-throw latches stay locked under vibration and impact, so the case remains airtight and watertight in transit. No fans, batteries or electronics are present, meaning silent operation and zero power draw in every environment.
Build Integration
The 1720 sits between the 1700 and 1750 models in length and includes fold-down handles plus two-inch urethane wheels for rolling transport. Stainless-steel hardware and padlock protectors secure the lid, while the stackable design allows stable vertical storage. This version ships without foam, giving the owner freedom to cut custom inserts or use existing dividers for specific gear layouts.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 2" urethane wheels and fold-down handle on the 1720 case?
The wheels and retractable handle are factory-fitted; simply extend the handle until it locks and tilt the case onto the wheels for transport.
What maintenance will the Automatic Purge Valve and Double-Throw latches need over time?
Rinse the purge valve with fresh water after salt exposure and lubricate latch pivots lightly with silicone grease once a year.
What is the first limit reached when the 1720 is stacked under sustained load?
The structural copolymer shell resists crushing, so the stack height limit of the storage area is reached before the case deforms.
