yup, HA limit on ammo is 11lbs, but I had in some occasion I went over the 11 lbs, but the agent did not say anything or checked the ammo....so it depends on the agent checking-in your luggage.  Also, porter services are more relax, as long as they get good tip :shaka:

heresay but I also read the pilot has ultimate say on what he will allow to fly on his plane, so remember the story about being the nail that sticks out.
Assault Rifle? What I have here is an Anti-Assault Rifle.

I will find out in a month. I ain't going to bring 70lbs of ammo though. I want to test the system first. I was thinking bringing 22lbs or a little more in one bag and see what happens. If I get denied I can split it with my wife and be on our way.
Google it cause every question is a dumb question.

Just came back on a trip on Hawaiian had my rifle 2 cases of 308 in my case . Bolt in mag out safety off . All I was told is "thankyou sir and have a nice flight" from TSA . I do a lot of outer island hunts and had no problems with TSA . I even forgot my locks so they zip tied it . I made sure I had locks on the way back tho . They don't need to TSA type of locks either -good day be safe

When flying with firearms you are specifically not supposed to use those TSA locks. You and only you should have access to the gun case. With the obvious exception of someone with bolt cutters.

You do what you want and good luck.

 I flew after the gun show back home to Kauai with just under 11lbs. of ammo and declared it with Hawaiian; no problems off and running. When I got home there was a card inside the ammo can that held my ammo from TSA saying that they took a look.
Just saying, OK. :)

By the way Alaska allows up to 50lbs on certain flights only. I believe flights to and from Hawaii are included in that limitation, if you want to call it that; I see it as a liberal allowance as it is nearly 5 times as much as other carriers.
