A couple things, One the real case has skiver (leather) lining not felt. But this looks pretty darn good. And two,
actually the reason there is a ledge, is that its a separate box, its made to hide all of the gadgetry that is happening behind it, otherwise you would see all of the tubes and mechanics making everything happen.
I quite like the look of the ledge and the box is not as deep as it would have been. But it works wonderfully. The ledge on the sides close to the catches uses a little black art to hide how thick it really is. I will make a video when I am finished showing a tutorial of how I made it all happen.
I still must finish the sovereign straps with snaps (transit tokens)
and the voice recorder and laser pointer.
Must also find the rifle. (Airsoft that has easy take down)
