Hi !
I'll be headed to Front Sight soon and was thinking about the adventure of flying with a handgun.
I have every intention of doing this "by the book"....I don't want to ever get into any trouble with the TSA.
That being said , I don't have an excess amount of faith in baggage handlers. I would be just sick to find out that someone had walked off with my gun. I'm thinking about removing the firing pin and packing that in a different checked bag....( definitely not carry on.)
This way , if the gun walks off , at least it will not be a functional handgun.....at least not without some work.
Does this seem reasonable ? Legal ? I welcome opinions and suggestions !! Thanks, mike
