About two months ago I had a Private locked rifle case turn up missing between LAX and JFK? It turned up the next day at Jet Blue in JFK. One of the two private locks were cut off. I had to leave the Airport with all my baggage to purchase another one!!! I was told at JFK Airport that the Airport Security OR The Airlines can cut off a Private lock without contacting the owner? I also found out that I could not Legally leave the Airport in New York without a New York firearm permit. If someone would have reported me I would have been arrested!!!
