Is it feasible to travel with a Supressor to Africa?

[Nicaburns]

I have seen it discussed in several threads but there doesn’t seem to be a solid consensus on whether this is truly possible or just a fools errand. Any tips and advice would be appreciated!

Fill out a 4457 and take your tax Stamp with you. Carry it in your locked gun case or checked luggage.

Relevant to my interest.

Does it have to be in checked luggage?

Locked gun case or in checked luggage. Locked gun case is where mine travels.

Edit to this make sure you are using a quality gun case, like a Pelican, Eylar etc. Plano is not a quality gun case. It maybe TSA approved, but they are junk. When you compare it to other cases the lack of quality material is apparent.

This has been researched and discussed at length.

I am travelling United through Chicago and Newark. I have decided to leave the suppressor home. On the return flight I have to clear my rifle at the Newark airport and I'm not going to argue with a TSA person.

If I were traveling through Atlanta I would bring the suppressor.
