Heading to Kansas today with my AR, any issues with carrying my ACOG in my carry-on?
Rifle will, of course, be checked. Thanks!! |
| I purchased an IOR scope while in Vegas. TSA said I could not carry it on because it was a firearm part. I had to dash back to check in and check the bag. While the TSA folks you encounter could be different, I will never take that chance again, as the consequences could be costly. |

We just got back from FL and the TSA said my daughter could not bring on a lump of modeling clay. It went to FL without issue. On both trips I got on with a swiss tool key/knife on my key ring.
You can never tell what they will or won't let on. If you try be prepared to be rejected. |
| Depends on the airport and the TSA fuck wad that is screening you. In TX, NM, AZ, and ID I can fly with all kinds of shit I can't from CA, NY, or VA. I get SSSS every and I do mean EVERY time I fly. Twice a month at least. Of course I am usually piss drunk as I hate flying. I would say FEDEX overnight it to yourself. I do that all the time. I tell the Hilton or whatever to bring me my package when it comes in and tip the front desk guy 50 bucks. Easy. Sometimes the package beats me, so call ahead if you get delayed. Hold the package in the town you are going to in that case and pick it up. |

I'm just going to stick it in the case.
I had planned on going carry-on due to limited space in the case (Benelli M2 shotgun, AR, mags, ammo, knives, tools, etc. in a Pelican 1700) but it just ain't worth it. Case is jammed full of pheasant and 'yote hunting goodness! |
