Getting the laws straight in your own home state is easy enough with a bit of reading and asking questions. When it comes to travelling with a firearm, gun owners face a multitude of conflicting laws that can be difficult to interpret (as Gregg Revell discovered) and cause for a rerouted road trip to avoid the dangers of getting caught with a firearm while driving through.

One state may ban handguns completely, while another state may only allow the possession of a gun with a permit issued by them, and another state may be accepting of a number of state permits—the conditions and variances go on and it’s the law-abiding gun owner that has to analyze all these conflicting laws if they wish to continue their law-abiding nature and travel outside of their state.
