Abstract: A security case is comprised of first and second shells which define a compartment. Means are provided for mounting a hand gun within the compartment. The shells are pivoted to an open position permitting a user to grip the gun and then swung to a closed position in which the user's wrist is captured in an end wall of the case. The shells are latched in their closed position by latching means which can be released by the hand of the user from within the case. Means are provided for mounting a traffic ticket on the case and illuminating it for night time use. Alarm means are provided which are actuated only when the security case is attached on a user's hand and the user is disabled or purposely wants to actuate it.
