I am looking at buying the 1650 pelican case! Is the foam as pictured or is it all there where I can make my own configuration?

The entire cavity is filled with foam that you can break into whatever shape you want.
1736051
The full foam rectangular insert is provided and fully configurable. (It has perforations throughout.)

It did not come as pictured here. It came with all foam allowing me to make my own configuration.

The case I purchased recently had two full layers of the pluck foam that filled the space. I was able to pull pieces of foam to customize it for my equipment. The removable foam pieces are approximately 1/2 inch square by 4 inches tall. There is about 1 inch of foam all the way around that is not pick'n'pluck foam. It has a separate piece of foam for the lid that has the egg carton shape like in the picture.

it is filled with foam---the foam is perforated so you can remove what ever shape you want. works very well

HI Jason, it is the pick and pluck system so you can configure the internal shape as you wish. Lloyd australianphotos.com.au. Oh They are great cases I have over 5 of them.

The 1650 comes with 4 pieces of foam. A 1.5" for the case's lid(pictured), 2 - approx 4" Pick N Pluck foam and a 1" solid piece for the floor of the case. All but the floor piece extends the full length of the case, because of the handle a assembly. Easy to configure. Pelican's web site has some great ideas too.

The foam is "perferated" so that you can easily "pluck" it out as little squares or groups of them. Untouched - it appears as a "block" of foam

It came with the foam and I didn't see a way to order it without the foam. You could buy different foam and use it. The foam that came with was a little softer than what I was wanting but it still worked well.

Well... I checked out the think tank case, and a tank it isn't. The Pelican so is. The cost for the Pelican is much less, so more bang for your bucks. I am a photographer, and I wouldn't want my $10,000 camera system anywhere but nearby where I can protect it, and feel confident that if it falls off the end of the ramp at unloading, which actually happened to me, that the cameras will be protected. So, it must be small enough to fit the airline protocols, and big enough to hold it all, sturdy enough to take the bangs that airline handlers put everything through. I am very happy with my purchase, and I see no reason to buy a think tank that isn't a tank, when I can get a Pelican that is a tank. Well... I checked out the think tank case, and a tank it isn't.

No I prefer to cut out the foam for a custom fit. It keeps the excess pressure off of any protruding surfaces along the sides of your rifle. Plus if the case is really dropped you don't risk one rifle slipping into the other from the hit.

The inside measurements of the case are clearly given in the specs on the Pelican website. To fit the computer perfectly, buy the foam version which you cut to fit perfectly.

I've only had this case for about four months and I have not seen any failure in the foam. This is one of the cases with pluck and use foam which means that the two pieces are basically cut into 1/2" cubes the depth of the foam with about a 1" or so solid boarder. To use the case you pull out the cubes till you have the size hole you need. I have notices that on those compartments which I use a lot some of the cubes are curling in and will eventually fall out. If that is the failure then yes I've experienced that. I live in Hawaii and here the life expectancy of any synthetic rubber or foam is limited. I have five cases for scientific equipment where I work at the university. They have a similar foam padding inside and are over ten years old. I have noticed that some of the foam is getting sticky and needs to be wiped off the equipment before use. I expect to have to replace the foam in this case at some point. I am using the case to store DSLR cameras and lenses and I purchased cloth bags to use to keep foam dust from collecting on these components. Based on my experience above I will be watching the foam for deterioration. One could replace it right away but I think that you should expect a couple of years of usage from the supplied material. It all depends on the individual.

No. Case has solid foam sheet. If you want custom fit, foam sheet has to be cut to fit rifle. Otherwise, I like the case.

Can't address "cheap plastic" as I'm not sure what your definition is. It's not a Pelican case, but it's not Pelican price either. I wouldn't let the airlines handle this but I don't trust them at all anymore and avoid flying...but it's well built for tournaments, hunting, etc.

yes, very nice case. cuttimg foam to customize is easily done with electric carving knife.

I ordered this a few months back and the foam is pre-cut/perforated into 1/2 inch squares, exactly as the original foam I received with my Pelican case.

Yes. It is the same LID ORGANIZER. Make sure your pelican case model is compatible

To answer your question, i foamed out one side panel, the top and bottom panels, rear panel and even had extra for some edges and harddrive bays.My other side panel is the window facing away from me and i did not put any padding on it. Helped reduce my noise. You can easily cut it to fit and use how ever much you desire. You want quiet fans first to begin with so buy quality, consider using this foam as a finisher for the interior and reduce it a few decibles further.

I wasn't happy with the pick and pluck foam that came with the case, so I got 1" foam from onlinefabricstore.net. I think I paid $25 for 24" x 108", enough to do 2 layers. This allowed me to cut the shape out for my rifle from the first layer, and glue it to the second solid layer. Way better. Foam no longer comes out with the rifle and has a much better custom fit. If your rifle isn't made out of legos the pick and pull foam is pretty sloppy. Watched some youtube videos for some how to before I started.

Mine consists of a series of square "plugs" measuring 0.467 inches by 0.467 inches (1.17 cm by 1.17 cm). Of course, since they are made of very flexible foam, those dimensions might shift a bit once one or more of the plugs are removed. My pick 'n pluck foam was purchased specifically for the Pelican 1060 micro-case and I can't speak for any that might be designed for larger or smaller cases. By the way, the plugs are contiguous (ie: right against each other) so you can pluck almost any shape you want. Hope this helps.

Don't know foam type, but there are already cutouts for 4 pistols and mags. Both cutouts are orientated with the pistol muzzle pointed toward the hinge (unlike photo which shows them pointing in alternate directions)

I don't really know. But Pelican is very good at publishing inside and outside dimensions for all their cases. When I bought my case that is what I did, and the fit was exactly as the mathematics said it would be.
