Jim Murnak cases

Owned a beautiful 2 X 4 Justis myself. My only disappointment in the design/use was the very narrow slits in the pockets to access stuff. Felt like I needed needle nose pliers to probe around to find anything.

AMEN Brother...:(

JIMBO I was Woffing you IMO the BEST CASE MADE are IN NO SPECIAL ORDER:

Whitten

Justis

Thomas

Murnak


Just can not go wrong with one of the (4) BEST CASES....






:rolleyes:

Bruce as in all your posts you really lack any balls to really post an opinion, so my advice would be that you just stick to your middle of the road "nice cue" replies. You were a pain in the ass for the longest time about wanting a Justis, then you got it and in a month sold the thing. maybe on a budget other cases will do, but Joe van said it best. Until i run across someone who owns all the cases on your top 4 list I'll stick with my opinion cause I do own them all, except for the Murnak, I had a chance to own one and decided to buy another Justis and spend the extra money. So IMO when money isn't the object I choose Justis.

Well JimBo I have owned a bunch of Cases, and you are correct. I did own a Justis about 6 Weeks, sold it for several reasons.

It did not SERVE my Purpose, and if I could have another Justis with Deeper Pockets, and that would take a Cue Section of more than 31.25" I would get another Justis.

The Case I am using now is nothing like a Justis but it serves me well.

As far as Mr. Murnak's Cases, his Cases are not a Clone of anyone else's Cases, and his tool work make his Case very Unique.

You got to admit after looking at the above Link Mr. Murnak's Cases are very Unique.

Is there a Perfect Case? I think not like there is not a Perfect Car, Truck, Boat, or anything else in this world.

Maybe that is why some folk just love their Porper, or Instroke Cases.

With all due respect, this is one argument in which you clearly do NOT live up to your name as you are not DEADON!

Jim Murnak may make a great case but to say that he is superior to Jack Justis is almost blasphemous. Justis cases are in a class all their own and that class is a notch above Jim Murnak. That is not say that Jim makes a bad case. He doesn't. But Jack is the king of the case world in my opinion. And as far as the lining goes, I get a little tired of hearing so many say that they disapprove of the cloth lining over the PVC tubing. Their arguments are that the tubing provides better protection. Well then, I gotta ask... what the hell are you people doing with your case and cues that this would really be an issue?

I use a 2x4 It's George and when I've got both butts and all shafts in there, they don't budge! They don't bang up against one another or smack into the side of the case. They fit perfectly with no wiggle room. Just as good as the PVC tubing.

It is not an agrument, just an opinion and please don't try to make it one. Both of them are equally nice and professional. It is merely an opinion about a product. Evidently, as you stated, some people do prefer the tubes, others don't care. To each his own. I have, or have owned all of the above mentioned cases, including fellinis and instroke, hell even a Joss. I stated the reasons for some, including mine, peoples preference. If you disagree with what I said then please explain your ideas about the things that I liked about the case. Blatant proclaimations are not helpful to other people which is the purpose of the forum. I am interested in your informed opinion, but thats all.

Don't care, not to mention it's a cue case, it holds cues, what purpose did you need it for? O wait I don't care, nevermind.

Jack's pockets aren't great if you are in and out of them often and need to store certain things, as far as the legnth well he will make it xtra long but they hold pretty long cues to start.

The Case I am using now is nothing like a Justis but it serves me well.

Don't care, didn't ask.

As far as Mr. Murnak's Cases, his Cases are not a Clone of anyone else's Cases, and his tool work make his Case very Unique.

Of course nobody said any different, but you feel a need to try and change the topic, I never said his cases were clones or that they weren't good cases, I did say they were heavy.

You got to admit after looking at the above Link Mr. Murnak's Cases are very Unique.

Who said they weren't?

I never said jack made the perfect case, I have a few problems with his cases, as a matter of fact I've been part of the reason for some of jack's changes. What I did say was that they are the best. For the most part I use an Instroke case for my beat around carry case, but that doesn't change anything I've said here.

beat around case

hey jimbo,hows it going.i had been following the case debate and in your last post i had a question i hope you don't take the wrong way.why do you have a beat around case instead of using your justice all the time.i understand if the reason is for keeping action sake.i was just curios.i have changed cases if i go to a place undercover but in my normal area i carry the same case i do at any tournament.just a question.
