This lot features a Vault by Pelican model V100 multi-purpose hard case, specifically marketed as a small pistol and ammunition case. The exterior is constructed from black, high-impact polymer designed for crushproof, dustproof, and weather-resistant protection. It features a heavy-duty carry handle with an integrated orange accent, two push-button latches for secure closure, and two stainless steel lock protectors at the top corners for added security. The front panel retains its original orange and black adhesive marketing label, which reads VAULT by PELICAN in large block letters. Below the brand name, the label includes bilingual text in English and French: PISTOL / AMMO CASE / VALISE DE PISTOLET / MUNITIONS. Additional text on the label highlights the features Crushproof / Résistante à l’écrasement, Dustproof / Résistante à la poussière, and Weather Resistant / Résistante aux intempéries.
A white adhesive label affixed to the front panel identifies the part number as VCV100-0001-BLK-01. The lower portion of the main label features a grey horizontal bar with the text THE LEADER IN PROTECTION / LE CHEF DE FILE EN MATIÈRE DE PROTECTION and the URL PELICAN.COM. A copyright notice at the very bottom reads ©2023 Pelican Products, Inc. Part No. VAULT-317-000-PAC Rev A 5-40813. The case lid also features an embossed VAULT logo on the right side and a secondary VAULT by PELICAN label located on the top edge near the handle. The interior is fully lined with a five-piece protective foam set, including convoluted lid foam and two layers of solid base foam over thin base pads. The original Case Care Instructions printed sheet is included inside.
