[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 3204264, member: 1132"] Not for nothing, but TSA doesn't take ANY of those guns. TSA notifies the local law enforcement jurisdiction responsible for criminal investigation at the airport, who confiscates the guns. TSA literally never touches those guns, ever. It's up to the local agency to refer the case for criminal prosecution (if any) to the local DA. TSA does not file criminal charges unless the attempt to carry the firearm into the Secure Area of the airport is part of a further criminal act, such as smuggling, terrorism, etc. TSA files a concurrent civil case against the subject which is completely independent of any local prosecution. The civil penalty under 49 C.F.R. §1540.111 is $4,000 for a first offense, absent any aggravating or mitigating factors. If no aggravating factors are present (i.e., artful concealment, etc.), TSA will offer to settle the case for half ($2,000) if you stipulate to the facts of the case and agree to pay within 30 days. Again, that's completely independent of any possible criminal prosecution. Just wanted to get the facts on record. Cheers! :sunbath: [/QUOTE]
