Susan and I will have to travel by commercial airline before long.
We have always brought our carry guns in the then-approved mode of "unloaded, breech/cylinder open, with factory ammo in original box/carton, in locked/approved firearms case." That case, when checked by airline employees at the ticket counter was then locked, and they placed a tag on it - and the case then went into your checked luggage, and the suitcase was locked.
The TSA says luggage can't be locked now - so what do you suggest? Anybody got the skinney on the rules for bringing a firearm in your checked baggage? Anybody have current experience?
Thanks!
