Traveling on a plane with a gun!
Following is a summary of key regulatory requirements to transport firearms, firearm parts 
or ammunition in checked baggage:

All firearms must be declared to the air carrier during the ticket counter check-in process.   
The firearm must be unloaded. 
The firearm must be carried in a hard-sided container. 
The container must be locked. 
The passenger must provide the key or combination to the screener if it is necessary to open 
the container, and then remain present during screening to take back possession of the key 
after the container is cleared.   
Any ammunition transported must be securely packed in fiber (such as cardboard), wood or 
metal boxes or other packaging specifically designed to carry small amounts of ammunition. 
Firearm magazines/clips do not satisfy the packaging requirement unless they provide a 
complete and secure enclosure of the ammunition (e.g., by securely covering the exposed 
portions of the magazine or by securely placing the magazine in a pouch, holder, holster 
or lanyard). 
The ammunition may also be located in the same hard-sided case as the firearm, as long 
as it is properly packed as described above.   
Black powder and percussion caps used with black-powder type firearms are not permitted 
in carry-on or checked baggage. 

The regulations are strictly enforced.  Violations can result in criminal prosecution 
and the imposition of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation.  

Air carriers may have their own additional requirements on the carriage of firearms and 
the amount of ammunition an individual may place in checked baggage.  Therefore, travelers 
should also contact the air carrier regarding its firearm and ammunition carriage policies.
