CA DOJ New Reg Proposals for CCW

I have asked, and every time it is a different answer. Most of time the supervisor says because “we have a new trainee”, which is obvious because another TSA agent is explaining everything to them as they perform the inspection.

It sounds like they know you'll offer a good training exercise for the newbie. Which is why you get the full treatment every time.

Amen!
On a side note, I find it interesting in that EVERY SINGLE TIME I go through the Boise airport, my checked baggage gets the complete and full inspection by the TSA folks, in my presence. They actually inspect my firearm (usually a small revolver), paw through my laundry, look deep inside the checked boots from the case, open up my shaving kit, fondle the tube of toothpaste, swab the ENTIRE interior surfaces of the case after EVERYTHING is removed, look in the jacket sleeves, etc. At least they let me put it all back, as long as I’m not wearing any garment with long sleeves. I have been through this so many times that I’ve lost count.
Now, when I approach their counter I immediately (and politely in a friendly way) ask if their manager can come out, as the alarms are going to go off, and he needs to be there to oversee the whole episode. Sure enough, it happens every time.
I have gotten to know by first name several of the agents and their supervisors through this, and they recognize me and ask how things are going. Because of all this at Boise, I must give extra time before my flight leaves. Contrast that to LAX, where this has NEVER yet happened, and the process is much faster.
BTW, I have TSA Pre-check, and Global Entry status….guess I’ve been flagged for some reason.

Its for drugs. I get the same whenever I fly out of Denver. You have to declare, then a guy comes and takes you about a half a mile away to the TSA screening room. They x ray everything, then open my cases and MOVe the guns as if they are in the way, pawing at every piece of foam and opening every crevice. They are NOT looking at or for guns.

I would print out a fake top secret document folder- with the red striping all around the border... and the title of the folder is Jeffery Epstein, or Hunter Biden, or Elon Musk.

I would also add a travel size thing of baby powder in the case. If I can find one less that 4 ounces or whatever....
