Can you take a gun with you on you travels nowdays with out to much hastle. I'm going to fly south and want to take a pistol with me, but I'm not sure if I can do this. Any help would be appreciated. I do have a conceal Carry permit.
You dont' have to call ahead of time. Arrive at the the airport 1/2 hr earlier than you normally would. Pack it in a pellican case or the like with padlocks on it. Sometimes you show, sometimes you don't show the person behind the counter. Ammo has to be in the mag not inserted in the gun or in the orig ammo packaging.
I took my Glock to Wisconsin. Two loaded mags one Glock and one box of ammo in orig packaging all locked in a pelican case the size of two glock boxed stacked on top of eachother. On the way over they had me sign a paper saying the gun was unloaded. Paper went inside the locked box. On the way back they had me sign a paper saying the gun was unloaded and the paper went on the outside of the box.
I copied this off the tsa website rules: You must securely pack any ammunition in fiber (such as cardboard), wood or metal boxes or other packaging that is specifically designed to carry small amounts of ammunition.
I guess mags are specifically designed to carry small amounts of ammo. That's what I did and they saw and knew it. :huh:
