Wife and I are going to Florida in February for our annual getaway. I plan on shooting at Silver Dollar for a day or two. I called and they have A400s for rent, but I’m not overly hyped about not shooting with my own gun. Especially for registered targets.
I’ve never flown with firearms, but have asked a lot of questions with our preferred airline’s agents at both my departing and arrival airports over my travels this past year. I have a hard SKB case I purchased specifically for travel. I’m comfortable with the rules processes and locations at the airports. The only thing I’m not comfortable with is that we have a layover on our way down. Our return flight is nonstop and I have far less anxiety about that.
What has been your experiences with layovers while traveling with firearms? We’re flying Southwest and have never gad issues with our regular luggage before, but we typically are able to get nonstops most of the time.
Our layover is currently scheduled to be through Atlanta (popular flight delay location).
