Question for those that travel w firearms often

[Indirect Fire]

Going to Texas for a spell and taking firearms with me to train with. Then heading to Houston to fly to a country I am forbidden to take my own weapons.

Options for storage of weapons left.
Can a gunshop store them for a fee or would a safety deposit box broken down be better? Are there any other options anyone knows of. I'm thinking the gunshop route will require a FFL transaction. Not a biggie but a PIA.
Any clues or ideas?

how long will they be stored? if it's only a week or two, take them to a gunsmith and ask him to tear them down and clean them. longer than that, i don't know.

safety deposit box in a bank would work for a handgun. Most banks in my area have no gun policy. Not sure if they prohibit anything in deposit boxes, but how would they ever know?

Can you rent a gun where you will do the training?

Bringing a particular firearm that I cant rent. I was thinking safety depoist box would hold dissaembled rifle and pistol cased properly. But the gunsmith idea sounds reasonable, it will be roughly 3-4 weeks and I have done that locally while working out of town. Could careless about bank policy.

Depending upon the length of time you are going to be out of country. A poor mans safety deposit box is the pawn shop.

You can pawn a handgun or long gun out of state and have no problem redeeming them. Just borrow a hundred bucks and $125 to redeem. Just be sure that you get approvals immediately when you run a 4473 otherwise you may have to wait 7 days or . . . .. I get delayed EVERY time so this is not an option for me. I, however, would just produce my FFL and cheat a little.

Mail them to your house. If you have someone there that is. But you can mail your own firearm to you legally. No usps

I concur. Best bet.
