Deerskin Rifle Cover

Hello all. Does anyone know where I can purchase or have one made for a 42" barrel? Not looking for one of the stiff looking modern made ones. Thanks. Rick.

Check with October Country, and see if they don't carry a case long enough. Or Dixie GWs. I found a 52 inch elkskin case that fit my 39 inch barrel rifle, and still use it more than 30 years later. Surf the suppliers you can find under " Member Resources" on this index. Scrolldown to articles charts, links, and click on links to find the suppliers. Most have an on-line catalogue that will give you gun cases of various kinds, and lengths.

It's suede rather than deerhide, but this one from Oklahoma Leather is 60" long for rifles with barrels up to 42". I've got one and it's well made.

Here is a company that custom makes elk skin gun cases. They have five PC styles to choose from. You give them the measurements and they do a great hand stitched job. I have had one for five years and it has held up good.

They are not inexpensive. But what's your gun worth?
