Be sure the Air Marshall, DHS, or ATF sees it from the side before you try entering a plane with that. It would be a shame to have a bullet go thru the camera body and lens, and possibly your head. Sorry for the cynicism, but Police shoot kids with toy guns all the time these days.
It would be like hiking in the Mountains or Rwanda wearing a gorilla suit

In Rear Window, Jimmy Stewart used an Exakta with a long lens. I still have a few Exaktas, they are great
film cameras with many lens options. They were compatible with Topcon lens mounts.
If I remember correctly, Jimmy used his leg cast to steady the camera...at some point.
There were many films which used the now vintage film cameras and a long lens but when you look at the new offering for "Digital Cameras" the telephoto shapes are huge and bulky with built in handles and
steady rests. The price is way up there as well. David C.

I've proposed that hunters who wanted to show off their hunting prowess without killing animals could create some kind of device like this: just add cross-hairs and viola! You can make the claim that you could have bagged that 18-pointer, but support killing animals for sport (or perhaps don't feel the need to own a firearm in the first place).
