So dumb question about a pelican

Stencil art. Hmmm. Good idea. I think these will ensure fewer prying eyes from security and more careful handling by baggage apes.

Ah hah! So it will look like a steamer trunk from the 1800s that’s been around the world three times. Or as often seen in lift lines at big ski areas… jackets with 27 old lift tickets dangling :):) Got it..

Not much sticks to that type polymer, so old looking travel stickers won’t stay on. What a thing to worry about. Plus I wouldn’t get too carried away no matter the motive— enough luggage gets lost as is. No need to confuse the baggage handlers/scanners any more than necessary. Years ago I chose the tan colored Pelican for a reason. To personalize and to ID at a distance, I just spray painted a red ring around its middle.

Then cut off the factory holes or plug them with automotive trim plugs. Rules state every lock hole needs a lock. So plug or remove the holes.

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.
