im going to dc soon to see my sister and i make sure my luggage doesnt have any bullets,spent shell casing or anything.I dont even use my range bag to travel. I have been told they are not looking for gun powder with there sniffer machine though.

I got a valid non-resident Connecticut pistol license for just this reason. So at least if I get stopped in CT I have a valid license. MD, NJ, I'd just have to rely on FOPA and have it locked up in the trunk separate from the ammo.

yes but NJ,MD,NY have shown time and time again that they don't care what federal law says.

I agree, but if you strictly follow FOPA....don't fly in and stay in NYC overnight..., MD ultimately had to pay on the FL guy... NJ hasn't busted anyone following FOPA that I know (lady w/PA permit had gun on her person)... I know a guy who was young and stupid once and drove all over the East coast in the '80's with no permits and never got busted... I would never recommend doing what he did, but today you have more options. I guess it's statistics....

I travel quite a bit for business and have made a bit of a "hobby" collecting permits/licenses. So far I have done TX (home), FL, NH, PA, ME, CT, & AZ. Going to try for MA, IL, NV, and WA. Maybe even DC if the courts ever work through the current issues.
