Modular system for shipping, storing, and carrying ammunition

Abstract

A modular system for storing sports equipment and other articles. The modular system includes a first storage unit and a second storage unit configured for being stored within the first storage unit. The first storage unit includes a first unit body having an interior compartment lined with hook-and-loop type fastener material. The second storage unit includes a second unit body having at least one coupling fastener secured to an exterior surface second unit storage body. The at least one coupling fastener engages the lining of hook-and-loop type fastening material to detachably fasten the second storage unit to the lining inside of the interior compartment.

What is claimed is:

         2 . The modular storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the lining of hook-and-loop type fastener material comprises a loop-fastening material. 
     
     
         3 . The modular storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the lining of hook-and-loop type fastener material comprises a hook-fastening material. 
     
     
         4 . The modular storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the first unit body is made of a tactical nylon fabric. 
     
     
         5 . The modular storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the second plurality of sidewalls and the second unit top are made of a mesh material. 
     
     
         6 . The modular storage system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least two second storage units are stored within the first unit interior compartment, and wherein the at least one coupling fastener of a first second storage unit engages the at least one coupling fastener of a corresponding second storage to detachably fasten the second storage units together within the first unit interior compartment. 
     
     
         7 . The modular storage system of  claim 1 , wherein first storage unit further includes a plurality of support members coupled an exterior surface of at least one of the first plurality of sidewalls, the support members being configured for toting the second storage unit outside of the first unit interior compartment. 
     
     
         8 . The modular storage system of  claim 7 , wherein the support members are elastic bands. 
     
     
         9 . A storage unit comprising:
 a body having a bottom wall, a first pair of opposing sidewalls, a second pair of opposing sidewalls, and a top wall, the bottom wall, the first pair of opposing sidewalls, the second pair of opposing sidewalls, and the top wall defining an interior compartment,   wherein at least one coupling fastener is secured to an exterior surface of each of the bottom wall, the first pair of opposing sidewalls, the second pair of opposing sidewalls, and the top wall.   
     
     
         10 . The storage unit of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one coupling fastener comprises a loop-fastening material. 
     
     
         11 . The storage unit of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one coupling fastener comprises a hook-fastening material. 
     
     
         12 . The storage unit of  claim 9 , wherein two strips of hook-fastening material are affixed to the underside of the bottom wall. 
     
     
         13 . The storage unit of  claim 9 , wherein the first pair of opposing sidewalls, the second pair of opposing sidewalls, and the top wall are made of a mesh material, and the bottom wall is made of a solid sheet of material. 
     
     
         14 . The storage unit of  claim 9 , wherein the top wall is permanently coupled to one of the opposing sidewalls and detachable coupled to the other opposing sidewalls, the top wall including a fastener coupled about the top wall periphery to upper edges of the other opposing sidewalls for opening and closing the top wall. 
     
     
         15 . The storage unit of  claim 14 , wherein the fastener includes at least one zipper. 
     
     
         16 . The storage unit of  claim 14 , wherein the fastener includes a hook-and-loop type fastener. 
     
     
         17 . The storage unit of  claim 9 , further comprising at least one tote handle coupled an outer edge of the bottom wall.
