The Butler Creek Element Gun Cover (BC17100) is a protective, weather-resistant textile slip cover engineered to shield long guns from environmental exposure and surface abrasions during field transit. Sized to fit firearms measuring between 41 inches and 54 inches (approximately 104 cm to 137 cm) in overall length, this non-marring cover accommodates bolt-action rifles, lever actions, semi-automatics, and shotguns, with or without mounted optics. The elasticized perimeter enables quick, silent removal in hunting situations, while an integrated underside opening maintains direct access for mounted bipods and slings.

Key Features

• Weather-Resistant Outer Shell: Repels rain, snow, dust, and moisture while protecting firearm and optic finishes from brush and field abrasions.
• Non-Marring Lining: Features a soft internal lining designed to safeguard delicate bluing, cerakote, and lens surfaces during transit.
• Elastic Slip-On Fit: Secures firmly over the firearm using an elastic border that stretches for rapid fitting and silent deployment in the field.
• Hardware Access Ports: Designed with dedicated underside access that permits the continuous use of rifle slings and bipods while the cover is fitted.
• Packable Design: Rolls tightly into a self-stowing configuration for compact storage in a backpack or hunting kit.

Who is the Butler Creek Gun Cover Rifle / Shotgun 41"-54" for?

• Backcountry Stalk Hunters — fits long guns between 41 inches and 54 inches in overall length, providing an elastic rifle slip cover design that pulls off silently and packs down tightly into a pack when stalking game.
• Wet and Dusty Field Hunters — shields rifles and shotguns from 41 inches to 54 inches against abrasive dust, mud, and moisture across exposed Australian hunting environments while leaving sling attachments accessible.

Less suitable for: Firearms shorter than 41 inches (which leave excessive loose fabric slack), firearms exceeding 54 inches (which exceed the elastic stretch limit), hot suppressors or glowing muzzle devices requiring high-temperature heat shields, or transit scenarios requiring rigid impact protection better served by a lockable hard case.
