    Anyone brought a rifle back from USA as checked baggage?

    Has anyone done this? I'm about to move there for 12 months on a work visa and have got an unfired NIB Sako 75 Hunter in .280 (rare) sitting at a mates in Mississippi. Will want to bring it back with me after the visa expires has anyone just checked a rifle as baggage coming back from there? I did a little research online and I don't think it's technically legal. I have heard of people just doing it though with no dramas. Otherwise i'm looking at US$400 to get it exported here. I don't want to end up in prison over there getting a daily human booster shot from a large black man named leroy
