KOR Gun Case Foam Replacement: Say Goodbye to Custom Foam

This year at SHOT Show seemed to be the year of gun cases. Several companies introduced new products, but the KOR VRS gun case foam replacement really caught my eye. Rather than using closed-cell foam with blocks that you have to move around each time, the KOR system is an actual universal alternative for case foam. 

The VRS Universal Gun Case insert conforms precisely to firearms and other equipment by enveloping everything stored in the case. With everything surrounded, there’s no chance of movement during transit. Since the contents remain perfectly secure, there’s no need to disassemble optics and accessories from the firearm. Keep everything mounted.

By replacing the bottom layers of foam inside an existing gun case, the VRS Universal Gun Case Insert eliminates the need for multiple cases. Once the foam is removed, place the KOR insert at the bottom of the case, lay whatever guns and gear require transportation, and use the included pump to vacuum the air out of the bladder. To transport other equipment or firearms, simply remove the gear inside the case, inflate the insert, and vacuum again with the pump to conform around different items.

The KOR VRS System delivers a customizable turnkey solution for virtually any long gun.

The system is a durable bladder made of a highly abrasion-resistant material that won’t scratch or rub on your equipment. You don’t have to worry about puncturing it with charging handles or other sharp parts of your firearm. It is safe for wood stocks and won’t create wear spots on your stock like other solutions on the market. 

Inside the bladder are soft foam pellets that are slightly larger than a BB. When you place your gun on the bladder, it forms around the gun. Think about what happens when you sit on a bean bag; it’s the same principle. Then with the bladder formed to the gun, you vacuum out the air, and it creates a hard molded custom-fit padding for your gun. 

If you need to adjust things, just air it up and start over. Once you have the VRS how you want it then close up the case. The top foam of your existing case provides enough pressure to ensure that nothing is going to move. 

I personally think this is the best solution for gun cases that I have ever seen. It is less expensive than custom foam, and you can keep using just one case instead of having multiple cases. Also, it is easy to clean since you can wipe it down with a cloth if it gets sand or dirt on it. It doesn’t hold moisture like foam, so no need to worry about it.
