I saw this recent post at LifeHacker and I think many might find it useful for traveling with all the expensive camera gear:

Neat solution - you may not want to try this outside of the USA though - you will probably just be locked up.

Not so. A day before the opening of the grouse season here in the UK I watched a couple of city chaps declare existence of shotguns in their luggage for the flight to Edinburgh. The long, gun-like cases were a clue.....the airline took them no problem.
This was for an internal flight. Not sure how it would work to Sharm......mind you, a brace of Purdys would clear the immigration queue in double quick time.

Anyone who can afford a brace of Purdys is unlikely to be in the same checkin que as me.
To be fair though I can think of a number of fine uses for a couple of shotguns in Sharm - none very sporting however.
