    I’m putting this out there just in case there might be a way to mount a rifle case to the prinsu without drilling. Or strapping it in a way that it’s difficult to open/ close.
    I was thinking maybe some sort of mounting plates brackets that hold the case and bolt to the rack?
    This is just a thought as I’m measuring and painting dots on the bottom of my brand new cases and can’t bring myself to ruin some shiny new cases.

    Direct bolting is the most secure and theft proof option. A few small holes will not ruin a case and are easily epoxied over and sealed if you take it off the truck and actually use it for rifles later.

    Well you could make some steel bands to go over the case but you'd have to unlock them every time you wanted to get into the case. If you're worried about drilling some expensive Pelican cases you could always buy those cheap Planos or Flambeau cases that some folks use. They seem to hold up fine for this purpose.
