So let’s break it down, shall we?

First, a quick disclaimer.

We’re not members of the Bar. We do not practice law.

Just want to be clear about that from the get-go…

Second, despite everything you may have read or heard on this topic, we highly recommend that you…

FIRST call your airline carrier…

… BEFORE you Uber to the airport or…

… BOOK a flight or…

… even THINK about boarding a plane with a firearm.

It’s common sense but, hey — just sayin’.

Third, knowing your rights is your best defense against breaking the law.

Of course, when it comes to modern security standards and practices, the thought of flying with your firearms can sound like a recipe for disaster, especially where the TSA is concerned.

But, contrary to popular belief, it’s actually not that difficult.

DEPARTURE & ARRIVAL

Here’s the big secret. The way to have peace-of-mind when you fly with firearms.

Be certain that they’re legal to possess in the state you’re DEPARTING from …

… and legal in the state where you will ultimately ARRIVE!

Remember, every state has their own set of local laws which differ from locale to locale.

Be sure to do extensive research or consult a lawyer about the gun laws in the particular state you’re jetting to… or prepare to be met on the tarmac by a not-so-friendly welcoming party.

Pay super-close attention to laws regarding possession (open carry versus concealed carry), vehicular travel, restrictions on magazine capacity, and types of ammo.

This may sound like a bit of work, but a good grasp of these basic rules and regulations will allow for a more confident and peaceful air travel experience with your firearms.

We at iconcealed.com know that making a mistake regarding flying security regulations can cause more than mere aggravation — it can lead to serious legal consequences.

So think first!

Then fly safe!
