Thanks....more great info! I will gladly pay him for the walmart case like you suggested. As for the "firearms declaration" form, do you just ask them for that right before you check your bags, fill it out right then, then take it back to them....or does this have to be filled out before the day of your flight?

Any other parts of the procedure I should warn him about, or just make aware?

Will they open the firearm case, or can it be locked? Is it okay to have more than one gun in there (potentially there could be 2 shottys and one revolver, but not sure yet). There will not be any ammo whatsoever in any of the bags.

Anyway, I'm just a little afraid he'll get treated like a terrorist while trying to do me a favor...
