Last time I flew, I put my belt and my holster in my carry on bag and sent it though X-ray. I wasn't going through the nudie scanner (for principles ... not modesty) and so I was pretty sure I was going to get the federally mandated molestation. I didn't want to have to explain the holster. (I was also wearing my anti-TSA 4th amendment t-shirt.)

Once the feel-up was finished, I went right over to the chairs put my shoes, holster and belt back on in plain sight of all. But the main reason I wanted it was so that once I arrived, I was able to quickly retrieve my firearm from the luggage and rearm in the bathroom without fiddling with belt and holster.

Edited to show T-shirt image:


With the text of the 4th printed on the back.

That's why I drive where I can and fly Space-A where I can't. Magnetometer and x-rayed baggage...that's it. Now the last time I flew out of NAS Fort Worth it took an act of congress to get my weapon checked but at Andrews AFB, they just hand off your baggage and weapon outside of the terminal. I find that ironic.
