They don't usually x-ray your luggage in your presence. so i wouldn't sweat it unless you are actually asked or pulled aside. stick to your game plan, or else you can expect a long delay.

I beg to differ, that big machine that they send your luggage through while you go through the metal detector, what do you think that is bro?

That only scans your carry on luggage (why would he have pipes in there?), the bags you check in to go under the plane don't get scanned while you are around... at least not at any of the airports I have been to.

yeah dude Iv'e been flying for a long time and been to 30 some international airports and haven't once seen my luggage scanned in front of me, only carry ons, but I know they inspect it.

but I hate the tsa so I always put my laundry on top.

Ah, yea, that's what I was thinking. My bad guys.

i honestly dont think you'll have no problem.. i took a box of about 600 .22 blanks for a ramset from Arizona to Colorado had to change plans once and they didnt mess with them... and when i got home i found a paper saying about how they performed a random inspection on my bags...

Note to self: Don't fly with... What airline did you fly again?

Unfortunately enough, if I were to get rowdy, they'd pull teh real guns on me.

hmm this shall be interesting, I hope you make it back into NZ. If not I will be looking out for a 16yr old male on the NZ boarder patrol show that we get here in OZ

considering how many times all of us have been zapped by flybacks, flashes, stunguns, and various other circuits, i'd think that a stungun would feel like a mosquito bite.

A couple airports I've been to have had a seperate large xray scanner for checked luggage near the airlines checkers. Not sure why, maybe either over crowding with the scanners out of view, or the airport trying to give a sense of security by checking bags. But some airports do scan checked luggage in front of the public.

Well incase you don't know I made it back safe and sound with a nice little note from US customs in my suitcase saying they took a peak...and liked what they saw

Nah it just said they physically searched my suitcase, but everything is still there, and incase you are wondering what 'everything' is, well this is my spudgun supplies I bought over there:

There is a QEV, 4,000 metal BB's and in those little bags are several small brass fittings the rest is self explanatory

Holy crap, lucky you werent stopped for a damn noise violation with all that stuff jingling around in yer bags mate

Nah it wasn't jingling at all, I packed it all up tight, I needed two suitcases, each came in at 18kgs each

you got the gun done yet or was that just stocking up for the future

I've got the basic GB gun and PB gun drying at the moment, made from spare parts. I've also put the QEV metal gun together but I need to add some finishing touches.
