Chaps,

This thing about packing your rifle amoungst your other luggage.

Please correct me if I misspeak but I thought that airline/international aviation rules preclude such a method. The firearm/s rather having to be seperatly packed in a locked case and checked in as such. The ammunition to be packed into a sealed container of no more than 5 Kg which can be inserted into your main luggage.

These were the rules both internationaly and internaly in Britain this year with three different airlines.
Does this differ from one country of departure to another ?
