Finnish Lahti-Saloranta Machine Gun Spare Barrel Case, Surplus

In the very unlikely (but also very fortunate) case you happen to be in possession of a Lahti-Saloranta machine gun, here is a very practical and stylish way to save room in your range bag. Slip that spare barrel in this sturdy vintage leather case, and flabbergast those modern Gucci-gun types with their boring gun sleeves and flight cases.

These leather cases have some nice patina to them, and they come in various colors: from slightly greenish grey to brown and reddish brown – due to enduring decades of heavy use, each one has more or less a color of their own. Probably a soul too.

The case holds within a metal-rimmed insert made of wood or metal tubing. The insert has three openings, roughly 1.7”, 0.75” and 0.4” in diameter. Your precious spare barrel will be secured with a proper leather cap with a strap and a buckle. The case also comes with an adjustable carrying strap.

If you have a proficiency in leatherworking, you might also be able to remove the barrel insert and take use of the whole volume of the case. Now you have a quiver for arrows for your weekend trip. Or better yet – you could repurpose the case as a sword sheath. After all, why not? To Camelot!
