Okay. Right now I'm in Knoxville, Tennessee, visiting a buddy of mine from overseas. Having a great time, and it's very likely I'll be moving down here in January. (Still want to go west eventually, but I have connections and job contacts here.)
Anyway, my trip will be taking me from here to Virginia, and from there to Maine, and then back to Michigan. I have my FAL rifle, ammo, and two handguns with me (we did quite a bit of shooting here).
I'm a little fuzzy on the transporting laws in some states. The weapons are in hard cases, unloaded, in my trunk. Are there any States I need to avoid? I'm to understand that bringing my 20 round FAL magazines into New Jersey could cause problems, but by-passing that State won't put me two far out of my way.
My rifle is illegal in New York State, I think, but I understand that as long as I don't stop while in NY, transporting the weapon doesn't constitute an offense (fortunately, my route takes me through only a little of New York).
Massachussets might also present some problems. Anybody know for sure? I'm on vacation, trying to have fun after my year in the desert, and am minding my own business. I don't want to end up in jail over a misunderstanding.
