Traveling through states with your hunting rifles...

(1/1)

I am planning a hog hunt in about a month.  I thought I would get advice from others about traveling with my guns.  Semper Fi Guy gave me some great pointers.

I called to the KS state patrol....they explained to me the KS Transport law.  Lock the guns up & unloaded in the trunk.  Easy as 1, 2, 3.

OK - a little different - lock the guns up in the trunk (unloaded).  Ammo must be carried separate (away from guns).

Texas - this is the great part.  I spoke to Trooper Reid about safe passage through TX.  I asked him about Ars & guns in general.  His exact words ..."This is Texas - bring ALL your guns."  I also asked him about carrying ammo.  His exact words.."I like to keep mine in my gun."

It is nice to hear that from a law enforcement officer.  It was a good experience to say the least.  I am nervous about traveling with guns.  I also think that it will go smooth as long as I pay attention to the rules.

Yep.  A couple of us travel down to Texas for a shooting match each year, and it is EXCELLENT to be able to have self-defense tools for the entire trip.  (And if you have to side-track through Iowa or Missouri, you are still all good.)
