Transporting firearms from Alaska
We're looking to transport some firearms from Alaska to family's house an Idaho city close to the Washington border. We can't drive them through Canada. What is the best way to go about this? Ship them? Fly down to Spokane and check them as luggage? There are three long guns and a Glock 20 included. Would that be a problem for bringing them in through the airport and driving them to Idaho? Thanks - my husband is having trouble figuring this out. Update: Many of you are suggesting we fly with them as checked luggage. Some of the firearms don't pass Washington's acceptable firearm laws. Would bringing them into WA count as 'importing' even though we'd be driving them directly into Idaho? Will the airport let us take them? I think this is where my husband is confused. He's done a lot of internet research but it's unclear if this would be considered 'importing.' We certainly don't want to break the law. Thanks!
