The interior of the long section for the 3-Gun bag is compartmentalized into two compartments for the long guns. Capable of storing an AR-15, and a shotgun in a separate compartment to keep the firearms safe and padded. The shotgun compartment has a zip-out extension pouch that will allow for longer shotguns to still be stored and carried in this bag.
The extendable pouch exits the zippered opening allowing longer shotguns to be carried and the muzzle to remain protected.
Each long-gun compartment also comes with a padded edge to rest either the buttstock or the muzzle of the long gun. To complete securing the long guns, each compartment comes with two Velcro straps. These features should keep the long guns securely in place during transit, and minimize any damage to the firearms or attached optics.
The exterior of the bag has two large zip-up pockets that divide the bag in half. Attached to the outside of each of those pockets is a medium-sized flap pouch with common slide buckles. These pouches are perfect for carrying eye protection, hearing protection, ammo boxes, notebooks, binoculars, or many other items essential for a good day shooting.

For patrol officers who are both patrol rifle and less lethal shotgun qualified, this bag provides a great option to carry both long guns from the armory to the patrol car with ease. The extra storage would provide all the area an officer would need for extra ammunition for each weapon, along with other essentials like flashlight batteries, holographic sight batteries and other needed accessories.
