You must be only person to have access to lock. When you check in for boarding, you declare you have a firearm. They ask you to open container and prove unloaded. Lock it in front of them. They tag it and it goes as checked luggage.When you pick up luggage, the tag will flag TSA. They will be at baggage carousel with your firearm case. You must then show ID to prove it’s yours. That’s it. Simple and painless.
