[QUOTE="gillettehunter, post: 2733546, member: 25760"] I have traveled several times to Africa. Several times as a international flight with United as the originator. Always just checked as sporting equipment and no extra for oversize fees that way. Domestic you should be charged for a normal check through bag and no more. Do not use a TSA lock. Every hole for a lock must have one in it. When you check in be sure they give you a declaration that your firearm is unloaded. Sign it and and put it in with your rifle. From luggage check in it should go to TSA for a inspection. You normally should go with them. Especially if you have relocked your case which I always do. I use a tuffpack so they have to use my key to relock for travel after inspection. After TSA inspects your rifle they should relock the case. Then the case heads off to the plane and you can too. Variations occur depending on airports and season. Denver during hunting season goes pretty smoothly. California maybe not so easy..... Bruce Bruce [/QUOTE]
