BigDave Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 (edited) Does anyone regularly travel by air who carries a Surefire E2D or similar? Any issues with TSA? Has anyone traveled recently overseas with one? Any input is appreciated. edited to changed E2C to E2D Edited October 19, 2006 by BigDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle Man Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Carried one through four or five different airports for the past few years with zero issues. I have a friend that flies weekly that always carries a Surefire or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Same here.. my Surefire rides in my carry on and never gets questioned. You might want to remove any bayonets or tactical-impact-devices first.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howardw Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Traveled to Australia from Tennessee this summer and had the Surefire in my computer bag the whole time. No one said a thing... US, Figi, and throught Australia and nary a peep. But your mileage may vary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trisha Lowry Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I carry a surefire in my purse and have traveled a lot with it. Usually the tsa pull the purse and run it through the scanner 3 or 4 times before asking if they can go thru my purse. I tell them they are seeing a flashlight and the last 'bright' guy actually pulled out the flashlight and used it to look thru my purse to see what they saw on the scanner. No real issues but now I leave it in my purse as a matter of principle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huston in Austin Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I carried an L4 ( LED ) on my belt ( took it off to pass through X-ray ) when I flew from Austin to Miami and back in early June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer-lock Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Never had any problem domestic or international and I usually have more than one on me. One in the jacket, one in the bug out bag and spares in checked luggage. I have had much more trouble with unexposed film, Southwest Airlines peanuts and the delays caused by my traveling companion, who apparently fits the profile of an international terrorist.
