Just flew in from Long Beach California to JFK Airport in NYC with my 12 gauge shotgun. This was my first time flying and it was a breeze!
I presented my shotgun in a locked hard case and a seperate locked container with ammo to the woman behind the counter and clearly stated to her what was in each container. She asked for my key so that TSA could inspect the case, I provided it, asking if I could be present for the inspection. She said she would ask and took my 2 cases to the back. She came out a moment later saying I wont be allowed to be present for the inspection, I said OK. A few minutes later she returned with my key, confirmed that everything was OK and I was off to the airport to wait for my flight. No sweat!
Upon my arrival, my hard case came out on the baggage claim carosel along with my locked box of ammo next. No sweat!
I hope everyone here has as little effort as I did transporting their firearms during their holiday travels!
Merry Christmas and by the way, Santa Claus owns a 1911!
