I agree that it is best to print out the laws concerning air travel with firearms although the only place I ever seem to have an issue is with the damned check in agents. TSA has always been very professional and accommodating.
11 pounds of ammo is the max amount but I've never had anyone ask to weigh it.
Not married, no kids, two dogs and the older one is getting closer to his dirt nap...so I guess I better get under way before some temptress alters my plans!
Have owned AR 15s for many years and decided I wanted to build a 308 AR. I like the cartridge since it's pretty plentiful albeit a bit more expensive than the 5.56mm.
Meh, it will make my brother jealous too!
