I brought my super tuck, just no paddle holster for open carry outside the city. I was merely describing the card as it relates to my experience on southwest. I've heard about those rocky mountain oysters...perhaps I'll suggest them to our Canadian coworkers ;)RoyGBiv wrote:You avoided a big mistake, not taking your weapon when bag check was free. But you still made a couple of errors. 1 no holster and 2 the card is not always white, on Delta is bright orange on AA it's kind of fluorescent pink.
Enjoy Denver. Don't eat the Rocky Mountain Oysters, they've only for tourists.

First time checking firearm
Howdy y'all,
I flew from Houston Hobby to Denver DIA this weekend for 3 weeks of training for work. I wasn't going to bring my carry with me because I didn't have enough time to look up how to fly with it and my company prohibits carrying on their property and unfortunately the parking lot bill doesn't address anything about company vehicles. Anywho, last second with some googling and searching on here and southwest.com, I decided to bring it with me. Since I lack a good ammo case, I bought a new box of my favorite defense rounds and put it with my firearm and one empty magazine in the metal combination lock box that I normally keep in my truck. I got to the counter and declared it and the attendant didn't bat an eyelid and continued processing my bags and gave me that little white card. I filled it out and before he taped it to the outside of my case, he made me show him visually that it was unloaded and clear. He looked and said ok and I locked it and he taped the card to the case. No TSA involved at all! Was worried about my bags getting hung up but both spit out on the belt in Denver and I am happily protected here in the mile high city! I didn't bring my paddle holster to carry outside Denver but maybe it's best I not ruffle any feathers. Just wanted to share for anyone who is unsure about it!
