So my old man is plannin' a trip to come hang out with me and wants to bring a handgun or two. We were discussing how he was gonna do it and neither of us were exactly sure.:huh:
1. He said he can mail a gun or guns as long as he's mailing the package addressed to himself at my address; He said this is popular with hunters. Is this legal and if so are there certain rules?
2. He mentioned possibly bringing them with him as some sort of airline baggage. What are the laws concerning this? A special case? A certain marking or tag? A particular lock or a particular amount of locks? Lock on case or gun or both? A blessing by a particular religious entity? One of the guns is a Taurus which as you might know has a built-in lock. If it needs a lock for travel, does this lock count or does it have to be some sort of visible cable lock?
3. The last resort would be sending them through a FFL holder. If and when he does this, whats the procedure? And if using a FFL, do the guns change legal posession?
Gah...after all that, I'm kinda suprised how little I know about this. So if there's something I've overlooked or something else I should know about, lay it on me. Thanx in advance for the feedback.
