Lots of misadvice in this thread. There are specific packing & checkin requirements. Check with the airline several days before your departure and be sure you are in compliance.
Speaking of misadvice.. no offense:
Perhaps they aren't supposed to come out of the luggage carousel, but both times I've checked a long gun case (shotgun inside), the bags came right out along side the rest of them. So indeed I think it is good advice to be at the carousel, right where the bags pop out, before they start coming out.
