Hardshell plastic handgun cases: I have a small MTM, & a medium sized Dockosil. A couple of years ago I handled pair of Planos. Other than individual preference for different features(say, the sliding sleeve Dockosil latches vs the snap-tab MTM latches, has/doesn't have padlock holes, etc), I don't see a nickel's worth of practical difference between them. All will do a good job of carrying & protecting your short gun. If you can handle them in a local store, I say open & close 'em, look at differences, & choose the one you like best.
