Airtags

They saved my day! Delta in Jacksonville decided to not load my rifled on the plane. Showed the gate agent my rifles were still up front, he did everything in his power to get them on the plane. Well worth the money!
@Rem280 that must have been one interesting discussion. I’m interested to know who you talked to that your bags were not on the plane ie crew on the plane or as you said crew at the gate as your boarding? Here they often are still loading the plane as your getting seated, so trying to tell them “hey me bags aren’t on“ will be a tough sell on some airlines :( sounds like you found a good one. Some are just there to eat there lunch:mad:

I went up to the gate agent. Explained my situation and what my airtags showed. Considering my rifles had not moved in hours I was concerned. The gentleman could confirm with Delta's system the rifles had not moved either. He started calling various people and made a miracle happen. Yes I was very lucky getting a good person to help.
 
I've decided to use Tile for my trips in the states when I get out of hospital next month. I will also use on my trip home to Thailand where there will be 2 change of planes. If they work I'll use next year for trip to Africa. I've never forgotten how lucky I was. Plane stop in Dallas on my way to Houston from NM. Everybody deplane for cleaning etc. both front exit doors open and as I was in line I looked out the other door and there went my seabag. Thankfully the lady there understood, I had my service revolver and off duty .45 in there, and got it promptly replaced. Pre 9/11 and things were very different back then.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
