My Mosoon 715V has the "American Tourister" case and when I got it the foam was a mess and was stuck all over the gun and accessories, so it has been sitting around and ugly inside, last night my daughter and I went to the store and got some foam and fabric. She picked the color, the original foam was blue so this seemed a good choice. I'm very pleased with how it came out and so was my fashion expert and my son even said it looked good! Is that the right belt buckle for this kit, its cast and dated 1979?

Stainless guns came out in 1982, a belt buckle dated 1979 could be original to the Pack, there was a lot of use of New Old Stock in those days. If there was a spot for the buckle in the original foam, it's probably original to the Pack

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

 Thank you all for the nice comments! I was worried you guys might say it looks like the 70's!

Honestly, that looks really great!  I have deviated from the traditional a time or two myself, so I must admit that your color choice looks GROOVY, BABY! coolhehebig-grin

For example, here is one of my "non-traditional" Pac configurations...a .44 Mag.

Yes, it is a black Tourister case. So far, the only difference I have noticed between a DW case and a briefcase is that the DW cases use only one "lid prop arm" on the one side...the briefcases use two, one on each side.
