Extra security when flying with your bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Worried about your bass when you fly? This will at least help.

You will still need an airline hard case, but don't you just hate to leave it unlocked, or lock it with one of those wimpy TSA locks?

No more! Lock it with as secure of padlock as you want, just add a gun.

When you check in, you will have to declare your firearm (even a starter pistol or airsoft gun!) You are not required to even have ammo for it! Then you will spend a bit of extra time while they inspect your luggage, after which point you are REQUIRED to lock it with a lock to which only you have they key!

Your bass will be safer to the destination, and what I've heard indicates that airlines are much less likely to lose luggage with a gun than other luggage.
