I have new gun case for my LCP. I've had this decades old first aid kit lying empty for a long time. Last night I used Soft Scrub With Bleach to scrub the front of it, at first just rubbing it around with my finger, then using an old generic Scotch-Brite pad which I had to throw away after I cleaned my sink. The white wasn't very white, and it had dirty streaks on it too. I used the scratchy pad and lots of Goo Gone to get rid of the sticker that covered the back of the box. The body of it is a really nice shade of blue. I cut a piece of memory foam slightly undersize, but it was way too thick, so I cut it into 2 layers with a pair of scissors. I didn't know what to do to cut it in half, so I grabbed the scissors and started snipping. It worked! The new side is facing up. It's not exactly flat but it's close enough.When I scrubbed the lid, I scrubbed off some of the lettering in "FIRST AID KIT", so I went over it with a blue permanent marker tonight. My LCP with a 7 round mag just barely fits in the box. The memory foam is still on the thick side for the box with the gun in it, so I mash the gun down into it then close the lid and it stays shut. The box is about 4 1/2" x 5 1/2" x 1 3/8" outside measurements.
The foam is from a mattress topper my friend gave me. I cut it to fit my camping bed and it helps keep my air mattress from sliding around. Since it was for a bigger bed I have plenty left over, and used some in my Samsonite hard shell briefcase. That has my laptop accessories in it I take up north for movie night by the campfire. I used to put my single shot 20 gauge shotgun in the briefcase when it was broken down. The barrel fit diagonally, the forend fit in one corner, and the stock I cut down into a pistol grip fit in the opposite corner. One time my older brother saw my short shotgun and said, "Isn't that E-legal? (illegal)" and I told him no. But it was very close to the limit. It wasn't very useful and went to the Flint police department when they had a gun "buy back".
