I'm curious about this. What exactly are they swabbing for that they would need to open the case? I mean, we know there's a gun in there and there could be ammunition, right? And the counter person already saw the contents, no?

The swab is for explosives, which smells different to the machine than gunpowder. The counter person saw the firearm(s) but didn't actually search the case.

If you don't mind me asking, what kind of case do you use? I may have to fly home on a short notice for a family members surgical procedure. I've been looking for a case that would hold about the same what you took with you (except swap the glocks for 1911s ). I've been looking at pelican cases but I haven't seen one that looks like it can carry 2 rifles and 2 handguns. I'm not a very strong woman so I'm looking for something with wheels.
