Glock 19 or 43x. Usually I’m met at the airport by a friend that hands me a gun in the parking deck...and you’d be surprised what I make in a month.

Very good choice. After the last time I flew, I was home unpacking. I had the form in my bag that it had been searched. I had items in my bag that did not belong to me.

I never noticed you were in Hoover. I just spent a couple weeks there and it’s a nice area.

If you come back through, let me know. There are several of us around here.

Thanks in advance.


hard sided pistol case ... I have several... one that actually holds two pistols. Of course you lock it with a non TSA lock (the reality is they can open it anyway... believe me I know) for years I also included several loaded mags in the cases.... Delta says the ammo needs to be in a factory box... but TSA actually says ammo can be in a magazine so the last two times I flew I put a loaded magazine under the empty one. either way this allows you once out of the airport to just open the case, load a magazine and chamber a round. I pack my holster in with my carry on.

I definitely will. I hope to be back there eventually. Not only did I like the area but the company I was working with was great too.

Usually my Glock 43x. Small enough to carry, inexpensive, can use with 15 round magazines or 10 if in a state with limitations.
