As tens of millions of Americans routinely carry guns when they travel, some are bound to be stolen by thieves. A passenger who recently traveled through Atlanta believes he is the victim of such a theft. From fox5atlanta.com:
“I said, ‘What happened?’ She said, ‘Your bag is delayed.’ I said, ‘What do you mean, delay?’ She said, ‘It didn’t make the flight.;”
The gun owner says a helpful Delta agent in Fort Lauderdale told him the airline map indicated the gun was still in Atlanta.
But once he returned to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Sunday, that story changed.
“He goes to type the number in, now it says the gun was never checked in. Not even through Delta, or TSA,” he said. “So, somebody took it out of the system. What do you mean it’s ghost?”
Stealing a gun at an airport is a bad idea. There are cameras everywhere. Baggage is closely monitored and tracked by tag number. This correspondent has traveled with firearms dozens of times without a problem. Consider the Biden appointee who stole women’s luggage for some weird fetish. They were caught on camera and tracked down. One author recommends checking a gun in your luggage as a security measure.
The most common problem at airports with guns happens when a few of the tens of millions of people who routinely travel armed forget a carry gun in their carry-on luggage.

I remember when lots of guns were stolen from train freight cars. Some idiot in Washington had decided that all guns shipped by rail had to have a big red sticker on labeled FIREARMS.
A gun dealer in Little Rock Arkansas told me that the conductors on the trains were in cahoots with people on the roads. Those on the roads would wait at certain rail crossings on rural roads and the conductors would toss off those labeled FIREARMS to a waiting car.
Years ago Mike Wallace of 60 Minutes did a report on robbed freight cars. He talked with a gang of blacks who said they had last stolen meat from a refrigerated car, but the best haul they ever made was...”GUNS!” They refused to say what they had done with them.
Same thing happened to me 50 years ago with a SEARS card.
If I were going to have a declared firearm in luggage I would disassemble it, put the slide and barrel in one bag, the frame in another. After the declaration someone said to then pull out a roll of heavy duct tape and wrap the luggage a couple of times.
It both made the bag more noticeable and added another barrier to entry.
Sending counterfeit bills through the mail in such a situation provides a great opportunity for a thief to get caught when they try to spend them.
