I will be flying with a rifle this fall for the first time in years. I know the regs have tightened and have had friends have problems when flying with guns.
So, do you use a TSA lock on your gun case? By a TSA lock, I mean one that has a special code so the TSA agents can unlock it after you leave if they choose to.
One person told me to only use the TSA locks on luggage, but never on a gun case. You are there while they check out the gun before you lock it, and after they approve it, they don't have the right to unlock it again unless you are there. Sounds reasonable to me, but just wanted to know what others are doing
Also, I can find no gun case that is less than the 62" that "luggage" can not exceed (length + width + height) but there seems to be an exception with "sporting equipment?
