Travel with a suppressor through Newark or buy one in RSA and leave it

[Letzhunt]

I know its been talked about before in general but has anyone traveled through Newark Airport and travelled with a suppressor? The other option that I may think is better is to speak with the Outfitter and have him either purchase or arrange for me to purchase a suppressor with a 5/8x24 thread while I'm there and leave it for the next time or for others to use as a bonus for those with a threaded barrel and not using a camp gun. Thoughts?

Have you considered just doing without while you're there? Shouldn't be a whole lot of shooting involved if you know your gun. I get the advantage of a suppressor at the range but hunting not so much. I absolutely do not pay any attention to recoil in the field. My focus is entirely on the game I'm shooting at.

Nothing to do with recoil. More about the noise as my hearing has suffered over the years and I can't afford to damage it anymore. I used the ear protectors that are attached to the band on my last safari and it worked well but I much prefer to use a suppressor as I do at home.
