Summary
I am on my second 103 case. My first case made 4 trips to Viet Nam, 5 trips to the Middle East, 7 trips to Central and South America. It had been sandblasted in the desert, exposed to monsoon rains, esposed to salt spray, dropped from a train platform, dropped by a taxi driver, and even dropped from the top of an army tank and generaly abused. It always protected the camera, lenses and accessories inside, until it was partially melted in a house fire that got hot enough to deform steel, and the hinge and one latch still worked !
If you are serious about protecting your gear, especially when traveling, these are the best cases you can buy.
Highly recommended without qualification or reservation.
Strengths
Incredable strength and durability.
The ultimate protection for camera equipment.
Customer programable combination locks.
Matching Suit Cases, Attache Cases, etc are available.
Weaknesses
The obivously high quality is an inviting target for thieves, so I use custom made sholder strap with small steel cables built into it. This prevents a thief from cutting the strap in a snatch and run.
The prices may seem high but you get what you pay for.
Similar Products Used
Matching Zero Halliburton Suit Cases.
Customer Service
Excellent, delivered the cases as promised the order was placed, and replacement foam insterts when needed.
Provided FREE replacement parts to repair a suit case zipper that was cut by TSA Inspectors, who did not have a TSA # 2 key.
My only complaint is they could not replace the burned case under warranty after only 25 years faithful service. LOL
