2nd review i've used these cases in the past as a paramedic and they have stood up to almost any abuse but that appears to no longer be so. i've used this case as a camera case with gentle use and no abuse of any kind. about 4 to 5 weeks after it arrived i was opening it and the left latch snapped in half. i called the vender and was told it was a pelican problem and i was given a customer service number. i called pelican and they aggreed to send 2 latches. this is good because since i called the right latch snapped in the same way. this used to be a great product but all i can see now is replacing one latch after another3rd review the new latches have worked fine now for about a year/they were a bit of a pain to install but otherwise np upgrade to 4 stars thx
