Dances,
Some great suggestions there! Thanks for the ideas; I hadn't thought about checking a few of those places.

I ended up ordering this one from Midway. It was on sale for $39.

That is a good looking bag. Diminsionally I think that it is almost identical to the "Winchester" bag that I have been using. Let us know how it is once you get it?

I was looking at a Ruger bag for the same price, but that bag didn't have any side pouches/compartments.

I will. I'll be happy to post pics as well.

I got mine from the NRA store and it is a nice compact bag that will hold everything I need for two pistols for a nice shooting session. One of these days I'd like to get something a little larger than this one for when I want to spend a day at the range shooting a variety of stuff. But I've got so many duffle bags of various configurations and sizes now that I have to wonder if I really need anything more. It is just that the "range bags" are compartmented nicely for carrying pistols and related stuff. They work better than a wide open duffle bag.

Enjoy your new bag. Midway is a good place to do business with. I have never been disappointed by their service.

Sorry guys, I got the bag late last week, then my wife and I went up to VT to go skiing. I'll try and take some pics tonight.

For $39, this is a lot of bag! You get the regular bag, a small bag and two small pistol rug bags. This thing is also loaded with pockets! Many are big enough to toss in a Federal 550 bulk pack. There's more than enough room for two pistols in their cases, ammo, tools, rags, a water bottle, glasses, earmuffs.....I think I'm starting to sound like Ron Popeil "Set it......and forget it!"

That looks like a nice set-up for $39.

That is a good deal for the price. I may just have to grab one of those, as lately my "little" range bag which was perfect for one or two pistols and some ammo, is just barely big enough for ammo these days.

They'd probably sell more of them if they had a few more pics of the bag on their website. The one they have doesn't really highlight how much stuff this thing can hold.

Y'know, the more I look at this organizer, the more I'm struck by its close resemblance to Artoo Deetoo (R2 D2), that whistling, beeping runt of a robot Of Princess Leia of STAR WARS, forever noisily arguing with Threepio (3 PO), the gold-plated robot.

It's not difficult to imagine having one such organizer rolling on its wheels and faithfully following Joel around. With his propensity to fool with gadgets, I'm sure Joel can easily add two arms and a motor, outfit it with a transponder, and call it Artoo Deetree (R2 D3).

Then, in the boonies, he can just say, "Artoo, pls hand me a cold soda, pls."

Only, Joel might end up saying, "What?? You said I already had taken my three shots and it's now your turn to shoot???... Awright, awright!!!..." And grumbling to himself, hands over his favorite varminter to Artoo Dee Tree to shoot and enjoy.

Be careful...
It reminded me more of the robots in Silent Running.

I use a Stack-On 26" for a general purpose gun gear tool box

or a Craftsman 17" if I'm just going to shoot rimfire

I took the bag to the range yesterday. It was a balmy 21F outside. The bag did great. Had tons of extra space for extra gloves and a hat. I managed to last about 2 hours. Had a great time BTW.

Nice bag, Glenn!

Jaeger, I had some like those you posted however mine ate 'em!

Upon a closer look mine does appear to being giving a two thumbs up!
I'll never look at it the same way again.
