Foam for Pistol Cases
The right foam for a pistol case holds every handgun, magazine and optic so nothing shifts in transport. Choose reusable RAGAR foam you can rebuild for every new loadout, pre-cut pistol foam with pockets for guns and magazines, or a solid uncut pad you cut yourself.
Pistol Case Foam Options
- Reusable RAGAR pistol case foam – interlocking XP crosslinked blocks lift out and drop back in, so the same insert rebuilds around a new pistol, red dot or light without cutting.
- Pre-cut pistol foam – foam sets cut for 2 to 8 handguns plus magazines, and Recon Rack adjustable EVA inserts for 4 or 5 guns.
- Glock and 1911 inserts – precision-cut Glock 19, Glock 17/19 and 1911 foam, including inserts for the Milwaukee PACKOUT compact organizer.
- Uncut XLPE foam pads – solid closed-cell pads in 1" and 2" layers for a custom pistol case foam insert you cut to your own guns.

Case not listed? Check the case foam size chart or measure your case – foam is sized by interior footprint, so any case with a matching interior takes the same insert.
Why Closed-Cell Foam for a Handgun Case
- Does not absorb moisture, oil or CLP – open-cell foam soaks up solvent and holds moisture against the finish.
- Holds its shape – dense XLPE and XP foam stay firm, so pistols and magazines stay locked in their pockets.
- Keeps the layout tidy – a separate pocket for every magazine and accessory means a missing item is obvious.
