My sister lives in Nashville. Better BBQ in Memphis.
All New England BBQ is transplanted Southerners (like myself) trying to bring some joy in the hellhole of shitty food and ******* people that is New England, the literal opposite of the South...although the fresh seafood is ok.

like the way they did the amphitheater and they way they worked the train line into the design.
I'm not really one to initiate conversation with strangers, but every time I go out to CA I wind up meeting tons of interesting people.
Generally agree, though it also depends on where in CA. Too many people in Los Angeles seem to base their personal status on how rude they can be to others and get away with it. I will still go there if only for LACMA and the Peterson Automotive Museum. San Diego and San Francisco are full of interesting people, though I have to remember not to talk politics with random people from SF.
Yea, I do agree about LA. I can't say I didn't like it there, but it was more the proximity to so many cool beach towns than LA itself. Hollywood was ****ing unbearable.
Somehow I wound up talking about guns and concealed carry with an Uber driver in SF. No idea how it got started but I was just like, oh no...here we go. Luckily he turned out to be ex-military who actually owned guns and lived in SF. Our opinions on concealed carry were a little different, but luckily we managed to talk more about stuff we agreed on.
Totally agree, though, I try to stay away from politics out there. The people are interesting for other reasons...the only reason to go there is to make yourself not have a good time.

Insufficient, since the TSA has to be able to open the hard case to inspect the gun. The idea is to prevent anyone from removing the gun which is easier to sneak out than the entire luggage.How about just through the handle of the hard case to the frame of the luggage? I'd hate to drill a hole thru my waterproof/resistant pelican case.
I thought TSA is NOT supposed to handle my gun case/gun without me around. Only after I unlock the case.Insufficient, since the TSA has to be able to open the hard case to inspect the gun. The idea is to prevent anyone from removing the gun which is easier to sneak out than the entire luggage.
I have a nice pelican case, but I use a much lower end hard case inside my luggage. Mutilating a Pelican case goes against the laws nature.
This idea can also be used to secure a gun to the interior of a car's trunk if you are traveling and cannot bring the gun in with you, or have too many to do so. I know of cases where parking lots were targeted while an "after shooting event" dinner/ceremony was being held in a hotel.
You are never supposed to give up your key. If they take it from you, they are doing it wrong.I thought TSA is NOT supposed to handle my gun case/gun without me around. Only after I unlock the case.
I was required to give up the key in Phoenix so they could open the case in some back room (nothing was taken). Good luck getting them to follow the finer points of the policy.You are never supposed to give up your key. If they take it from you, they are doing it wrong.
OK. I'll bite. Where in NH is there a BBQ joint that would be considered good in Kansas/Oklahoma/Texas/Tennessee/etc?

Is it documented somewhere not to give up your key?
If you hear someone tell you you have purty mouth,or a banjo playing run like a son of a bit^h.
did they change something with the declaration card going on the outside in the past ~3 years? I've always had it shoved right inside of the bag..Seems like a bad idea to call that out to the baggage handlers who already have a reputation of thievery..2. Ammunition does not have to go inside the locked case. It does have to be in a box designed for ammunition. That can be the box it came in or an aftermarket box.
3. DO NOT use TSA locks. Use a quality lock. I use a keyed lock and bring two keys, just in case.
As of this morning, the declaration card is being taped on the outside of the case if it's inside a suitcase. That's so TSA knows what's in the box. TSA really only cares about the box if it alarms. Other than that they don't routinely ask to open them. It's up to the airline to make sure it's unloaded.
This morning in Austin the SWA folks asked me ir the gun was unloaded, but didn't ask me to open the box. At Logan last week they did.
I don't know if having Pre Check makes a difference in this or not.
I recommend using a cable to tether the box to the frame of the suitcase. There is no benefit to running a cable through the firearm itself.
Enjoy Nashville, it's a great city.

I misread "case" as suitcase....Taped to the outside of your gun case which goes into your checked bag. Delta had me do this about 6 months ago when I went to Atlanta.
That is different from past instances.
