I've traveled with rifles in checked luggage occasionally. The case is required to be locked, but the locks on these cases will only stop a casual check. 30 seconds with a hammer and screwdriver are enough to get most of them open. Usually you have to pick these up from a specific point and show your ticket stub to claim them.
At SFO they claimed they never received my rifle case. 15 minutes later I found it circling on a luggage carousel.
- LyndsySimon 8y agoI often travel with firearms, and even when I don't "need" to I will sometimes put an AR-15 lower receiver in a large Pelican case so I can securely lock it. A stripped lower can be had for $30 if you shop around, and I've met others why travel with sensitive electronics that have done the same thing.
