How to Fly With Guns and Not Get Arrested So you need to fly somewhere and you need to take guns with you. How do you do that without getting arrested? Carefully, but it is not hard. I'm flying from Sioux Falls to Atlanta and then driving to Talladega, Alabama for the 2021 United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) Lo-Cap Nationals. I need to bring two pistols, nine magazines, and a bunch of ammo. And yes, I'm going on a plane. Step one is to make sure it is legal to bring the shooting equipment to the state and city you plan to go to. Georgia and Alabama don't have any draconian gun laws so all is well on that front. Handgunlaw.us is a great resource for that.
