Does anyone know if RTD will allow transport of guns to the airport if unloaded and locked in a hardside case?
Or does this just go back to C.R.S. 18-9-118 silliness?
18-9-118 specifically mentions "loaded"
Thanks

You mean a locked case with custom pool cues? Why would they take issue with that? [Dunno]
Unless you yell it out, no one knows.
Eh. Just put some Burton stickers on the outside of the case and nobody will give it a second glance.
Why do people think sheep magically know what's in a case?

I think the rub with firearm laws is that being wrong general carries heavy consequences (felony). People continually ask because laws are not necessarily straight forward (gray areas). People on this board are more experienced and have run into similar situations.
It's not an issue unless one makes it so. There's nothing ILLEGAL about carrying a gun. Be it concealed (on you) in a case etc. Unless one is asked , and volunteers said info, No One Knows.
It's been discussed numerous times, the answers have always been the same. DADT, Concealed means Concealed.
Follow state laws, keep ammo separate from gun (when flying). Keep your concealed gun, Concealed. Keep a long gun Unloaded (car and Case) It's really not that hard to understand. It's also not hard to read state laws (prior) to travelling, not matter what mode of transportation you choose.
With all due respect, the RTD train to the airport is only days old, and most people on here probably aren't transporting long guns via RTD very often.
I don't think it's silly to want to find out if the train to the airport is treated like a bus, or like a train.
SEARCH FUNCTION.. It goes WAYYY BACK before there were scam artist chain saw borrowing now public knowledge of said former members. [Beer] I'm also going on record to say A train is a TRAIN. Not a BUS, but a TRAIN.

You can carry a gun on public transportation just not loaded unless you have a CCW
