So, just out of curiosity, how do some of you other Jacks here transport/store some of your effects and what not? Something simple like a duffel bag or suit case? Or something more interesting like a giant trunk or chest? I have everything in a big plastic tote and some of my smaller items in a guitar coffin case I had laying around (totally unnecessary but it always draws attention walking into a hotel carrying that thing)

I don't....

I store them, but don't transport them. In storage I have all the trinkets, leathers and hard items in a plastic storage bin in the garage. And all the soft items are hanging up in a zippered garment bag

I go to various events in which I'm usually at a hotel for a weekend so transportation is pretty regular for me, I've been toying with the thought of one of those big old leather trunks

When I travel I am actually able to fit all of my Jack Sparrow stuff (minus the sword and baldric) in a carry-on suitcase. lol
But I think if you just get a large square suitcase (like one that is half the size of you) that would work better.

I have a question regarding checking your items for the plane... what does the TSA do about the fake pistols we have? As most of us have very realistic looking pistols, I was wondering if you had to declare something extra or what happens with that?

some of the mates talked about TSA troubles on KTTC, but nothing specific regarding the flintlock. It's a toy. People buy them at Disneyland and Florida every year and THEY have to fly them home all of the time. Just don't put it in your carry on.

I am not using the toy one though... I have one of the Denix replicas, and what happens when I guy a ForgottenSeasTradingCo one? That one is solid wood, with metal moving parts (not a functioning flintlock in that it doesn't fire, but it's a highly realistic prop). I am just wondering because I am moving out to the Midwest of the US but I will still be going to events on the east coast, so I will need to fly to and from locations. I don't want to have to use my toy pistol since it is not modified yet
