I Use the cases, soft or hard, to transport my freshly cleaned and oiled guns to and from the range, or to take on a camping trip. Alot of it is just so I know what's where and to keep them from getting banged around. It's just a weird case and I hope it wasn't added to the price cuz I wouldn't have bought it.I liked the hard cases too but they all gather dust under my bed holding a wide variety of items, none of them guns. A lot of companies have gone to cardboard boxes for their guns. Based on responses from the Hellcat and 911 FB groups a couple of us run, only ~1/4 or less of owners actually use the old hard cases. The Velcro isn’t going to scratch anything and is for morale patches (assumption on my part based on size, could be wrong). You can buy a hard case from Springfield at the link below or from Flambeau. Although, I don’t think they make the exact kind SA used anymore.
