Request from NRA-ILA
Survey
Request for The Competitive Shooting Community
NRA is
looking for specific information on the treatment of the shooting
community by airlines, airports and the TSA. Based on information to
date there appear to be patterns at specific airports and with
specific airlines. In order to clearly identify the airlines and
airports that are doing it right and doing it wrong we need your
help. We are asking competitive shooters because your community has
some issues, interests and needs that differ from other gun owners.
We need
information on your experiences traveling with guns for competitive
shooting events only – both good and bad. Specifically, we would
like to know:
• The
airport where the experience occurred.
• If your
comments are about an airline identify the air carrier and if it was
with counter personnel or baggage.
• If the
experience was with TSA.
• If your
experience was with local law enforcement or private airport
security separate from TSA please identify the department or company
to the best of your recollection.
• In some
instances more than one player may be involved so please separate
what each participant did or did not do – be specific
• Again, we
want both good and bad experiences.
What we will
& will not do with this information:
• We will
gather the information into a report.
• We intend
to use the report to attempt to correct poor performers and this is
where the people who got it right are important. We want to be able
to show airlines, airports and branches of TSA can do their jobs and
respect our rights at the same time.
• We will
not put any personal information provided by you into the report but
we need to be able to follow up and confirm what you tell us.
• We cannot
accept anonymous information. The strength or the final product will
be in its verifiability.
