Protective gun cases to be sold to consumers
Shield Technologies Corp. of Eagan is launching a new, high-tech protective gun cases for hunting and outdoor sports enthusiasts. Envelop protective covers were developed in 2005 for the military market. They protect against water, humidity, sand and other contaminants. They'll be adapted for a consumer line made with leather, brass rivets and ballistic nylon. The covers repel moisture from the outside and expel moisture from the inside, helping create a corrosion-free environment for storing and transporting firearms. The line will include cases for shotguns, rifles and handguns.
