LOL Well that's a darn good question. I didn't say I kept it zipped. It was totaqlly unzipped and just folded over the gun with my hand on it. The case stayed in my lap and I had really good cover.

This weekend it's supposed to rain but I am taking it with the muzzle covered in Saran and a rubber band and I am hunting. I will take it apart and clean it up when I am done.
