Description
The Magpul DAKA Soft Case SR44 is the 44-inch soft rifle case in the DAKA line, the middle size between the 35-inch SC35 and the 53-inch SLR53. The shell is 600D TPU-coated fabric with a TPU backing layer, RF-welded seams, and closed-cell foam. The walls are semi-rigid so the case stands upright and opens flat for loading. The zippers are YKK AquaGuard with 550 paracord pulls and they accept TSA-style locks.
The floor has five MOLLE-style base panels with DAKA Gear Straps included, so you strap the rifle down instead of letting it slide. Four stretch mesh pockets each hold up to two PMAG 25 LR/SR GEN M3 mags, plus a zippered mesh organizer and a large document pocket. Dual carry handles, stowable attachment points for a sling or strap that take QD, Paraclip, and MASH hook, and an RF-welded ID panel with a paint pen dot matrix. Magpul lists the weight at 5.6 lb.
Size note: the interior is 43.5 inches long. That covers an 18 to 20 inch barrel AR with a fixed stock, most 16-inch rifles with a brake and suppressor, and shorter bolt guns. It also fits inside the DAKA Hard Case R44 as a liner.

Who it’s for
3-Gun and Tactical Games shooters with an 18-inch match rifle, or anyone with a 16-inch carbine and a suppressor that pushes past the 35-inch case. Also the right pick if you plan to drop the soft case into a DAKA Hard Case R44 for travel.
Who should skip it
A bare 16-inch carbine with a collapsible stock fits the DAKA Soft Case SC35 with room to spare, and that case is a pound lighter and cheaper. For a 24 to 26 inch barrel precision rifle, step up to the SLR53.
