How Does The TALON System Work?

A considerable amount of innovation and engineering has gone into designing this new modular case system. We want to share with you some of the science behind how it works so that you can feel confident that your system will protect your equipment sufficiently. After all, with a completely new approach to the reconfigurable case market, it's normal to have questions about its effectiveness. 

We test our systems and cases for 36" drop tests on every side. Depending on the brand and age of your hard case, the shell may crack or fail before our system does. Why 36"? Because that's around what your high-end case manufacturers test to. If you correctly position your equipment and blocks as outlined in our user manual, the system should safely cushion your valuables.

With each system, there are a number of components you will receive. First, the foam base is high quality XLPE foam custom cut to your specific case. This is the gold standard material for impact absorption in rifle cases. Most vendors will sell you cheap pluck foam with your rifle case. While typically sufficient for most minor drops, this foam tends to degrade, stain, and deform over time. Our  foam is softer, more durable, and provides even better protection. It is permanently laminated on one side with premium nylon loop fabric that is easily cleanable and about as soft as suede fabric you might wear. Unlike traditional napped loop fabric, dust, debris, and other particles do not get tangled in ours, and are instead easily wiped off or vacuumed.

The foam blocks you will receive are engineered to absorb maximum impact without compromising on size. Materials utilized for these are tough polyurethane foam and each one is permanently bonded to the highest quality hook material. We utilize a method of bonding the hook material to the polyurethane, so there is no possibility of delamination even with exposure to CLP or other degradative chemicals. Our hook material is carefully selected to be crisp and easy to remove, however deploys a shockingly strong shear strength in the event of a drop. Geometry created by closing the upper lid and 'sandwiching' the blocks, your firearms, and the foam base together creates a soft and secure landing if your case takes a tumble.

You may wish to order additional accent caps for your system. These are purely cosmetic and do not impact the function of your case system. However, they are designed carefully with the intention of enhancing the appearance of your rifles. The patterns we have selected are individually designed to look great in any orientation, and the colors we offer are just as carefully considered. While they are, for now, 3D printed, you might not immediately believe it. The visually stunning surface appearance and mirror-finish quality is formed with many trade secrets and produces a photogenic level of appearance with every possible setup.

Our competitive advantage will always be exceeding customer expectations with quality and value. We hope that you not only trust our systems to protect your valuable equipment, but also enjoy using it. We believe our solution is fundamentally the correct approach to reorganizable case protection. If you've made it this far, our engineering team would like to thank you for your curiosity. Additionally, if you have any questions or comments about the TALON system, we encourage you to reach out so we can help.
