- Designed to hold mid-length s and gear. Advanced injection molding technology provides greater strength, durability, and case integrity, and the charged polypropylene material reduces weight and its structure creates a tough outer shell. Sleek and streamlined outer design means minimal places for snags to occur and the hinges provide stability when open and are nested in a polymer housing to prevent tampering and break-ins.
- Internal storage area built around the transformational DAKA GRID Organizer. The DAKA GRID Organizer Panels and Blocks are lighter, easy to use, and customizable for every loadout, and are reconfigurable without tools to maximize storage capacity and ensure gear stays in place. The GRID doesn’t absorb moisture, dirt, or other contaminants like open cell foam, and it wipes clean with a damp cloth. Stronger GRID and Hard Case combination provides better overall protection for your gear.
- Internal corner pockets create an impact-resistant bumper zone that also provides extra storage space for small objects. Water and weather-resistant ket keeps out dust and moisture and includes self-equalizing pressure control. Case frame includes lugs at the base that interface with the lid, allowing cases to nest together. Strap recesses keep straps in place to mitigate shifting in transit.
- Unique latch design makes opening, closing, and locking a snap. Two cammed, push-button latches can be opened and closed with one hand. Lock and zip tie pass-throughs secure locks within the latch and streamline the case, preventing impact damage to the lock and the case.
- Handles are comfortable and functional. Handle cross sections are modeled after our pistol grips for maximum comfort and grip. The two hinged handles are longer than standard handles for more grip flexibility. Handles are designed to remain in when stowed and to stay out when deployed. A third, fixed handle located adjacent to the wheels makes gripping and maneuvering the case easier.
The Magpul DAKA Hard Case, R44 fixes the many shortcomings of
current hard case offerings, providing a stronger, easier-to-use,
and more reliable transportation and storage system. Combined
with our innovative DAKA GRID Organizer, the DAKA Hard Case
creates a premium storage solution that’s optimized for you and
your gear, both inside and out. Streamlined, easy to maneuver,
and full of usable protective space, it includes advanced
features such as better latches, recessed lock housings,
ergonomic handles, and dependable wheels, all in a package that
provides greater protection for your important gear. The DAKA
Hard Case has also removed the many potential snagging points
that typically lead to case damage, ensuring it glides smoothly
over most surfaces while in transit. Built around the uniquely
customizable DAKA GRID Organizer, the R44 was designed to hold
mid-length s and gear. It accommodates one or more s
comfortably, along with much of the additional equipment required
to travel with your firearms. The DAKA GRID is made of individual
Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) end panels, center panels, and DAKA
Blocks that nest securely together to create an advanced drop-in
system that compartmentalizes your gear. The DAKA Blocks can be
easily pressed into the GRID panels and are just as easily
removed and reinstalled to fit the needs of whatever you’re
carrying. As sed to traditional foam inserts, the DAKA GRID
doesn’t trap moisture, dirt, or other contaminants. It’s lighter,
endlessly customizable, and significantly stronger than
traditional foam, providing measurably better organization and
protection for your gear stored inside. If you’re carrying wider
or taller equipment such as lights, bipods, or lasers, a center
GRID Panel can also be cut down in size or removed to open up
space for objects up to 4.25” inches wide, as long as you brace
both ends of the firearm on the other panels. If you end up
needing to cut a Panel to create a unique cavity for your wider
gear, the EPP cuts smoothly, doesn’t flake like regular foam, and
doesn’t lose its strength or ability to protect your important
equipment. The DAKA Hard Case also adds extra storage space with
its four, rounded, double-walled corner pockets, creating bumper
zones for added impact resistance that double as storage for
other necessary equipment. Its water and weather-resistant ket
also keeps out dust and moisture and provides self-equalizing
pressure control, keeping the contents safe from the effects of
external environmental factors. The Hard Case’s injection molding
technology provides greater strength and case integrity compared
to other conventional cases, with durability and drop performance
that stands up to the toughest shipping, travel, and hard-use
environments. The latch design, along with the greater case
rigidity, makes the latches simple to use and incredibly rugged.
Each latch features a large, easily operated push-button release
that can be activated with one hand. When pressed, the latch
opens and remains in the open position, and it can be used as a
handle to open the lid. The latch closes with simple downward
pressure anywhere on the latch body, and there’s a clear audible
“click” when it’s secured. The innovative latch design also
features a reimagined latch lockout system. Each latch on the
DAKA Hard Case contains one lock pass-through and, once a lock is
installed (we recommend a lock with a 5/16” thick shackle and a
1-1.5” interior clearance), the latch cannot be opened until the
lock is removed, which secures the entire case. Additionally,
each latch features a lock housing and a zip tie pass-through
that allows the user to secure the lock to the case, protecting
the lock and the case from damage due to impacts. The Hard Case
includes two Velcro straps for this purpose. Nesting lugs provide
a positive interface when DAKA Hard Cases are stacked on each
other, and two built-in strap recesses keep ratchet straps in
place and secured during use. There are two large main handles
that are easy to manipulate under load, and a third, integrated
handle near the wheels makes the case easier to move and allows
the case to stand vertically on its own. The handles have cross
sections that are modeled on Magpul pistol grips for greater
comfort and control, and they recess completely into the case’s
frame. They’re designed to stay open once they’re extended and
stay closed when not in use. The wheels are designed for smooth
rolling and longevity, with reduced noise, friction, and debris
incursion thanks to the ball bearings, rubber overmolding, and
glass reinforced nylon hubs. This R44 Case has interior
measurements of 44.25” x 17” x 5.5” and works best with up to two
standard 16” s, heavy carbines, and other similar firearms.
Hard Case made in the USA.
