New ZCORR Anti-Corrosion Softcase
ZCORR Products has introduced a new Anti-Corrosion Softcase with a built-in, vacuum-sealable VCI corrosion-barrier bag providing airtight and waterproof protection for firearms. The 42″-long main gun compartment houses a VCI storage bag that clips into the softcase. ZCORR’s clip-in system lets you secure a second long-gun bag when two-gun transport is needed. Double-gun capacity is a plus because these cases are expensive — MSRP is $249.00. That’s ten times the cost of some basic soft-skin (fabric and foam) rifle carriers.
ZCORR’s reinforced VCI bags are sturdy, being made from the same tough VCI material used in the popular ZCORR long-term storage bags. The clip-in VIC bags are designed to withstand frequent inserting/removing of firearms. ZCORR claims: “With repeated use, such as one to two shooting sessions per week, the VCI vacuum bag will last at least five years and longer with less use. After five to ten years of use customers can simply replace the VCI bag by unclipping it from the softcase and installing a replacement.”
While we like the idea of a soft guncase with serious built-in corrosion protection, it’s too bad that the case is only 42″ long. That size will hold ARs, and some short tactical bolt-guns, but it’s way too short for typical precision match rifles. At least the ZCORR Softcase offers additional compartments for handguns and accessories. There is an 11”x35” front compartment for handguns and magazines. Other shooting accessories can be stowed in two extra pockets measuring 9″×12” and 9″×9″ respectively.
COMMENT: For $249.00 one can get a quality, full-length hard-case and three or four 54″-long vacuum-sealable Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitor (VpCI) bags, big enough to hold a long match rifle with room to spare. A hard case with 54″ bags woud be a better solution for most precision rifle shooters than this first-generation ZCORR Softcase. Hopefully ZCORR will get the message that its current Anti-Corrosion Softcase is undersized (for bolt guns) and over-priced.

Thank you for posting an honest review of our newly launched line. Constructive criticism is what we need to help develop products that shooting enthusiasts want and use… market research only goes so far. The new softcase line is an experimental one for us and we chose our initial size based on what seemed like a common size of 42″. This size will typically hold modern tactical rifles and/ or shotguns and unfortunately not many other rifles. The difficult task is designing a bag that fits everything without being too big or too small which is why we offer our regular vci bags in rifle/ long rifle and tactical/ compact tactical. We’ve learned over the years that our customers like a snug fitting bag so a universal one size fits all can actually be a deterrent sometimes. As we hopefully move forward with this line you can expect a more suitable Rifle bag measuring around 50″ – 52″ (we’re open to suggestions) and the current bag being renamed the Tactical/ Shotgun case.
Thanks again for your feedback.
