Flying with firearms doesn’t have to be complicated—or risky. Rick Crawley of Achilles Heel Tactical has spent the last three years crisscrossing the country (and even going international) with a full training loadout packed into a single Pelican 1615 Air case.
In the following video, Rick walks through his entire travel setup, including:
- ✅ How to legally fly with firearms, suppressors, and SBRs
- ✅ Why he uses the Pelican 1615 Air Case (and how it’s held up through hellish airline abuse)
- ✅ The TSA rules to know—and how to handle pushback at the counter
- ✅ How he packs using OTTE Gear cubes and Magpul DAKA pouches
- ✅ The best way to conceal ammo weight and avoid TSA delays
From Apple AirTags to form 20s, Rick drops hard-earned insights for anyone planning to fly with their range kit. Whether you’re traveling for a training course or a hunting trip, this guide covers everything from gear protection to baggage claim recovery.
⚠️ Pro Tip: TSA agents make mistakes. Keep a digital copy of the airlines firearm rules on your phone, and always double-check that your case is latched and locked before it rolls away.
🔒 Case, Locks, Ammo, Mags, Guns—all in one setup.
This isn’t just how Rick travels—it’s how he rolls up to the range fully mission-ready.
