As a NY resident you would have had the applicable permits to own the guns. Either the problem is with non-residents or NYC has decided to make the life of gun owners as difficult as possible since you've left.

Better safe then sorry, if I where flying with guns that I couldn't easily replace, I would spend the extra money to avoid NYC & NJ or find an alternative method of getting my firearms to where ever I was going.

I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.

Both.

If you read the NRA-ILA site re state gun laws, they're pretty specific about avoiding NY and NJ area airports if at all possible. I'd go further and say to avoid the entire NYC area if you have anything firearm-related in the car or your baggage.

But I'm just cautious.

Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.
