Just pack heat in your luggage the next time you hop a bird to your favorite water.

"All I have to do upon check-in is tell the airline ticket agent that I have a weapon to declare...I'm given a little card to sign, the card is put in the case, the case is given to a TSA official who takes my key and locks the case, and gives my key back to me."
"That's the procedure. The case is extra-tracked...TSA does not want to lose a weapons case. This reduces the chance of the case being lost to virtually zero."

Complete howto, slides, and a movie or 3 on traveling with firearms are up on Deviant Ollam's site: http://www.deviating.net/firearms/
I have been doing this for years. When your bag misses the flight (as eventually happens to all of us) the airline becomes obsessed with finding and returning your bag as fast as humanly possible. The reason is that if they don't return it it triggers an FBI investigation. The gun doesn't even need to work, and your kit is as safe as houses.
It's a very useful weapons for safe our life..I like it's design..
This is total crap. I work in law enforcement. The number one items stolen out of luggage...ding ding ding...firearms!!! You really think the $10.00/hour baggage guys care about stealing fly rods, when they see a piece of luggage marked "firearm". They know what it what. Your "firearm"/ rod is more likely to get stolen than lost.
