noelf,
You probably always fly on the same airline. I'm here to tell you that they do often put it inside the suitcase, but outside the lockbox. Which is the way it should be, for the following reasons:
When I fly on those airlines that require me to put the card inside the nobody-but-me-gets-the-key lockbox, I always request a second card for outside that box. Because it is downright stupid that some airlines put the "it's okay, we've checked it" card inside the lockbox nobody but me is legally allowed to access anyway. pax |

Just a question, is it possible to just ship the pistol from FL to AK?

kilimanjaro, it would have to be shipped to a FFL and you would have to go through a NICS check and probably a transfer fee to get it. |

The law provides that a person may ship a firearm to himself. No FFL needed, on either end. It's covered (or was, before they rebuilt it) on the BATFE FAQ site. |

To prevent my lockbox from getting stolen (separately from the suitcase, at any rate!), I use one that accepts a cable. Then I slightly unzip the liner and run the cable around the 'backbone' of the suitcase before locking everything up. pax |

By the way, I edited my post you quoted about the contact info. Checked rifle cases also have red tags put "inside" the locked case. Serves no purpose there either.
