Frequently Asked Questions
What size pistols fit inside the Pelican 1400?

The pre-cut or customizable pick-and-pluck foam insert allows you to tailor the fit for your specific firearm and accessories such as magazines and speedloaders.
Can I use this case to fly with my firearm?
Yes. The Pelican 1400 is designed to meet TSA requirements for checked firearm transport. It features two lockable hasps that accept standard padlocks, allowing you to secure the case as required by TSA regulations. Always check current TSA and airline guidelines before traveling, and ensure your firearm is unloaded and declared at check-in.
Is the foam insert customizable or replaceable?
Yes. The Pelican 1400 typically ships with a pick-and-pluck foam insert that allows you to remove sections to create a custom fit around your specific pistol, magazines, and accessories. Replacement foam and additional inserts are also available separately from Pelican and third-party suppliers, making it easy to reconfigure the case if your needs change over time.
