I have a Remington "gun" with shots and pins. I'm taking a replacement package of shots and pins with me on my next trip and suddenly wondered what
would the response be if they found these at a check point. Anyone go through this before?

-------what are "shots and pins" ???

good question??????? just show them how to use it and tell them to keep it away from their feet.
aren't the shots close to a .22 caliber? probably not an issue. just keep it all together so they can visualize driving a nail into concrete with all
of the pieces right there.

Picture a .22 cal casing without a head. Pretty obvious but it might cause a stir. I think it will be in the very bottom of the tool box.

Since they're available in the Hardware stores in San Felipe, I think you're OK.
I used to worry about the same thing until I ran out and was told they were there. More expensive, of course, but worth it when needed.

Put it in the tool box.
I had a run in with a Marine Officer over a multi purpose knife I had stupidly stuck in my glove box rather than back in the tool box when my son and
I finally gave up trying to survive the blow up in the Sisters. ( Sorry Woody, no google earth, GPS blings or headland photos provided ) 
.
The guy wanted $50 for the concealed weapon, but said it would be considered a tool if in the tool box.
45 mins later, I won the argument, Ryan thought I was nuts.
Full story has been posted elsewhere.
