A modular gun case (10) comprises an elongated bottom section (12) having a rim (28), an elongated lid section (16) having lid upper and lower brims (92, 94), and a top section (14) having a top section peripheral edge (70). The lid section matably engages and closes the bottom section. The top section can matably and removably engage either the lid or bottom sections. In one embodiment, the lid section is pivotally mounted to the bottom section. The sections at the respective rim, lid upper and lower brims, and top section peripheral edge utilize a combination of protrusions (104) and shoulders (102) to matingly engage one another. To secure the top section, lock recesses (72) are provided having juxtaposed lock brackets (74) capable of receiving a lock (76). Gas purge valves (51) are provided in the bottom and top sections. Straps (38) releasably retain the sections together. Wheels (42) rotatably mounted to the bottom section assist an individual in porting the modular gun case from one location to another. A plurality of locking bar latches (106) having locking bars (110) extending therethrough are mounted to the bottom, lid and top sections to releasably mount and lock the lid section to the bottom section and releasably mount and lock the top section to either the lid or bottom sections. The lid section has slotted inserts (98) mounted thereto to receive and transport objects.
