My dad is leaving for his Wyoming elk hunt next week, and he asked about borrowing one of my gun cases since he feels it's more secure than his. I read over the info provided by Delta and the TSA, and what they deem to be an acceptable locking mechanism seems to be a bit of a gray area. So, for those who have flown with guns before: would you consider this to be an acceptable locking mechanism?

Flying with guns - is this okay?

I appreciate that. I reached out to @trigger creep about his Pelican case, so I'll see if that works out.

From what I gather, the rules vary depending on the airline. I'm pretty sure the recommendation for Dad's airline was non-TSA locks, but I'll be reading through all that stuff again several times before I send him off.
Thanks for the recommendations. I was questioning whether that cheap aluminum case would be enough... By default I'm cheap, so thank you guys for steering me the direction I should have gone on the first place.
