Right after 9-11 I went to visit my son at Fort Bragg. At the motel I was unloading my carry on bag and my son saw a .357 hollow point round drop to the carpet. We marveled that it made it past TSA. So he kept it for good luck when he was going to be deployed to Afghanistan, this was Dec. 01. Well he got in trouble for having that round and had to go to gun safety training. Before this visit with him I had traveled by car to look for land to buy in Nevada and carried my pistol with a bag of bullets. I took the gun out but forgot the bullets. The bag of bullets was in my carry on the whole trip to North Carolina and back. I just kept thinking how they missed that and thankful for me that they did.
But they never miss my can of shaving cream or my deodorant over 3.5 ounces.
