The year before that, I had to go up there for my grandmothers funeral. This was in November, and I was hunting in Leakey when I got the news. I hurried home, and quickly packed everything I needed and proceeded to the airport. The only warm jacket I had was the one I was hunting in. I passed through the metal detectors and put my coat through the xray machine. Imagine my surprise in Burlington when I reached into the pocket in the airport and discovered 5 loaded 30-06 shells.
No offense to the poster who worked for TSA, but there doesnt seem to be any consistancy in the agency other than the level of confusion I have seen at the airports. If I travel somewhere and want to take my weapon, I will drive rather than fly.
