I am a Law Abiding Firearms Owner in the State of South Australia and have been Licensed here for over 35 Years (pre the Ban on semiautomatic Rifles being Owned by City Slickers such as Myself). Under South Australian Firearms Law, I am Required to drive directly from My Home to My Gun Range or Firearms Club or Hunting Ground or such like, Without Detour or Delay. Even the simple act of stopping for Fuel or to get Myself a Drink on a Hot Australian Summer’s Day could get Me into serious trouble, about transporting My Firearms. Thus such Weapons Transportation is Planned and well thought out before it happens and local communities and businesses en route miss out completely from any kind of support I might otherwise have given them. In this way My Weapons and Ammunition remain completely under My Control at All Times and are never left alone, even secured in a locked car. On such journeys I can not even transport an Unlicensed Passenger with Me because of the legal difficulties doing so might cause for Me or My Passenger, if I were stopped by Police for any reason.

transporting a firearm by vehicle through New York state can be risky if you do not have a New York firearms license. We rely on the federal Firearm Owners Protection Act (FOPA) to protect us on interstate travel. But there have been cases where the New York Police have arrested persons who had fully complied with the law, the police simply ignored the federal law. The New York State Police and the New York police Department do not recognize the FOPA and will arrest travelers passing through the state even if they have complied with the law. They will leave it up to the courts to sort out. This means you could end up in a jail cell for a few days waiting for the courts to release you. So how can we avoid that? You could try taking a copy of the FOPA, (Title 18, Part 1, Chapter 44 926A) with you to show any officers if you were stopped. But in my opinion they would be to busy to read it or not even understand the law if they did read it, after all they are not lawyers. And if they have been instructed to ignore the FOPA then no amount of debate with them will help you. www.gunlaws101.com/state/law/new-york/magazine-capacity-restriction
Hey im not a plane person i would either travel by road or water with that being said what are the laws regarding taking a firearm be it a pistol or rifle on a cruise/ferry or any other type of boat travel
I'm confused, if you can't travel through a state with a prohibited item and that's the only way (terrestrially) to get to your destination; how do you get the item there... Secondly, how does FedEx and UPS travel with prohibited shipments through these states?
@@HGAviator That’s tricky. As a general rule, no. One known exception is Illinois. If you have a CCW in your home state but NOT in Illinois, you CAN transport a loaded firearm in a vehicle BUT you can under NO circumstances take that firearm out of the vehicle. That’s the only one I know of. Other than that, it’s best to lock it up properly and store it. It’s ridiculous.
Infringement means to eat around the edges... Guns laws have knocked down the whole damn door... And the so called "Supreme Court" sits and watches the country become overthrown, denying to even hear 2nd Amendment cases. Those and 1st Amendment cases should be heard prior to laws being enforced, but they are a joke!

I’m confused. I can travel across State lines and the 1st Amendment and the 4th Amendment is the same in my State as it would be in NJ, NY, CA, MD, MA, et al but, the 2nd Amendment isn’t? How does that happen?
Great point. Like the proverbial boiling the frog by very gradually turning up the burner, these states, bastians of liberalism that they are, have incrementally usurpated the Second Amendment rights of their citizens while the US Congress and the US Supreme Court have stood by, doing nothing. Try making state laws that place limits on the 16th, see if that will be condoned.
My understanding is that one's car is considered as the same as their home in some legal instances, I think having to do with search warrents. Yes, yes, probable cause and how cops make shit up..., But the point is, there are clearly issues yet to be decided upon in courts, that change all of the time, and seem to be dependent on the circumstances, and what way big brother wants to screw with us at any given moment...

Exigent circumstances trump’s any laws protecting your rights when it come to open road travel. All a cop gotta do is believe there is a threat and act on that belief. Rather it was right or wrong, a guess is sufficient to searching your vehicle.

Boy ,they need to fix these loopholes for law enforcement & anti gun politicians. Seems like it's way too easy to send you to jail for exercising the 2nd amendment.
@David Wang Alright moron, you wanna come in here and start crap, be my guest. When the Founders wrote the word "militia" they were referring to "all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense." Nowadays, the militia includes every law-abiding citizen, regardless of gender, ethnicity, or race. The word "militia" in the context of the 2nd Amendment is not limited to a government fighting force. Also, I love part of the 2nd Amendment you quote completely debunks your argument. You seem to have skipped over "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms" part of the 2nd Amendment in your haste to post nonsense.
Looks like the gun grabber David Wang deleted his comment. Typical cowardly behavior. When confronted by a solid argument, these people fold like a house of cards.
@@briandaniel931 no , it’s not. And yet the OP is still correct. And it’s better than every single other country on the planet. Why are you even on this channel, you troll.
Even if you are an employed policeman/woman and traveling through New Jersey off duty. There are cases of them being arrested for carrying their service weapon for protection. That's messed up. I just won't go to such states and it seems they have very high crime rates in their cities as well.
Not that NJ is right in arresting the cops or for that matter anyone for simply being in possession, they are NOT. However, cops are not superior or have special rights or privilege.
One of the reasons we should have national RECIPROCITY. To hell with all these different laws in different states. We all live in the same country. HELLO
If I travel in my motorhome, it is my home. I will do whatever it takes to protect my family and myself however I see fit. What would be the point of having and carrying for the purpose of protection if bullets and guns are locked up in separate compartments. 2nd amendment should cover you no matter where you are, as long as you are not committing criminal acts on others.
"High Capacity" being a standard capacity that comes with the gun at time of purchase. So a normal capacity. Sounds a lot like an infringement of my gun owner rights.
Bans on firearms and bans or restrictions on magazines are infringements of the second amendment and need to be struck down by the highest court of the land. The persons who pushed those infringements should be tried for violating the constitution.
@@MagaMonkeysMovetoRussia it's the right to bear arms. It doesnt say the right to bear muskets. This is important. The right to bear arms specifies that people are allowed to arm themselves in a way that allows them to secure their home and possessions and protect themselves. No restrictions were ever intended. If the military can have it, the citizens are supposed to be able to have it as well. The 2nd amendment also ensures that citizens can organize as a militia or paramilitary organization and those actions are supposed to be protected. That's all there is to it. You're obviously a liberal and probably anti gun.
I'm tired of being lorded over by criminals in elected positions! "When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.

LOL...while you are correct now, Beto O'Rourke is eyeing the top seat in Texas...if that happens, watch out. It may be an uphill battle, but he will pursue an antigun agenda.
I agree with your concern but take a look at reciprocity maps, lots of like minded states adjacent to the great state of Texas that not only allow "transport" but your concealed carry permit as well. As always check each state's rules as some have differences, and I'm NOT saying the "problem" states aren't a problem, but I wasn't planning on spending one thin dime in any of the libtard jurisdictions anyway. Vote 2A issues as if your life depended on it... it does.
That's OK. Since I moved out of the Commie State of CA, I have promised myself to NEVER set foot on that tainted soil ever again. My guns are happy here in Idaho.
Fit in. I was stationed at both Mountain Home AFB and Ellsworth AFB. If the pilgrims don't like how the folks in Idaho and South Dakota live, they can always move back to California. This was pretty much the locals position when I was assigned to these bases thirty years ago. I suspect it's pretty much their position now.
I live in Michigan and when I drive to the Rockies, I never stop in Illinois for any reason. I don't want to "reward" that state with my hard earned money because they have Communist values toward firearm laws.
You can be perfectly legal, drive 100 feet and cross an imaginary line, and now you are a felon. It shouldn't be this way in America. Several years ago, I visited family in the Northeast. I really had to think through this issue. If caught in one of the communist states with a weapon that was legal in my home state, I could have been arrested and charged, which would have most likely cost me my CPA license and my job. I would have then been forced to spend thousands and thousands of dollars in legal fees, all of which would have devastated my family financially. I basically had to decide what took priority, my family's safety or my family's finances. Safety won out, but I was nervous as heck going through those communist states.
NOTE: This only applies to law abiding citizens. Criminals will disregard all of the above, and IF arrested, and IF prosecuted, can be rehabilitated by our outstanding correctional facilities throughout the country, all of which have impeccable track records for accomplishing this task. Law abiding citizens carrying firearms can rehabilitate the criminals at the scene of the crime.
Constitution doesn't state what type of person can have a gun and what type can't. Law abiding or not you have the right to bear arms until you commit a crime with one.
My brother was moving from NY to GA and was stopped and they asked him can they search his car. He said that he would prefer to get back on the road as soon as possible. They told him they were going to search it anyway. They got a canine unit and had his vehicle emptied and searched and they left him and all of his stuff on the side of the road. He was not ticketed for anything, even though he didn't do anything illegal.
@@Baman21 Some cops will search regardless of having any suspicion or permission. They'll make something up and harass you until you give them something to work with. And when the K9 comes along and "gets a hit" try to get video if you can. Some dogs will fake a hit when the handler says a specific word or makes a specific move. There was a story recently about a dog that retired with 100% hit rate. Every. Single. Time it was brought out, it got a hit. The dog had learned that when it got a hit, it was given a treat. Therefore it would fake hits because it wanted treats. I'd like to think that was just poor training, but it's possible the handler wanted *exactly* that behavior in order to get a high hit ratio. I hope it backfired in the end. If the dog gets a hit and absolutely nothing is found, that ought to count against the dog's credibility.
They just keep compounding these laws to the point that an officer will have the book and just thumb through until he figures out what law you’ve just violated. Next, our firearms are like insurance. You have it in the event that you need it. While your trying to figure out how to unlock these two cases, you may be watching a violent criminal take from you. It’s like having a fire extinguisher that’s empty. Finally while being in an unknown area to me is just the place you may need it the most. Remember, your in someone else’s back yard where they know the layout which puts you at a disadvantage already.
3:45 Funny how, whenever federal law is more restrictive than state law, we are told that federal law trumps state law. BUT, whenever STATE law is more restrictive than FEDERAL law, suddenly STATE law is supreme!
Poor guy, I would feel like a coward even saying these things aloud. I live in the U.S.A. and we have a Constitution, Bill of Rights says Amendment 2 Right to Bear Arms. A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. [Ratified 12/15/1791] Don't care who says anything different. This is the law.
Correct, but however illegal these made up laws are, you may still go to jail. The courts are in collusion with the corrupt politicians who put them in office.
What does a "well regulated militia" mean in this context? Or militia in general? The first Militia Act of 1792 states that: "each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia,... every citizen, so enrolled and notified, shall, within six months thereafter, provide himself with a good musket or firelock." The following second Militia Act of 1792 states: "... each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia, by the Captain or Commanding Officer of the company, within whose bounds such citizen shall reside ..." The interesting part of the 2A for me is the "well regulated" line, which given the context of the militia acts of the following year, seems to imply that able-bodied citizens would be incorporated into an official chain of command that would be under the jurisdiction of its CO and ultimately the state. Nothing I've found seems to back any interpretation of a "well regulated Militia" to mean unorganized militias of private citizens to protect their own interests, either with or against the government. The intent seems to be to create a fighting force to protect the state and federal government's interests and national security if needed, to be deployed and commanded by said state and federal governments and their officers. Although the issue of state vs federal control wasn't clearly defined and subsequently contested in later conflicts. In any event, these legislations were ultimately superseded with the Militia Act of 1903, which created the United States National Guard. The national guard seems to fall under the definition of "well regulated militia," as it is comprised of ordinary citizens who are enrolled by a captain or CO. Given that enrollment into said regulated militia is now voluntary rather than compulsory, and given that in the time period of the 2A enrollment was compulsory for all citizens, does the 2A still cover free citizens who have not enrolled in militia (e.g. national guard) duties and thus are not "well regulated"?
@@Kirivon being that at the time the amendment was written all men were or would be members of the militia, and were required to be armed and supplied with military grade weapons, as well as proficient in their use. And weapons were critical to one's God given right to self defence, which falls under the umbrella of the 10 amendments which are there to ensure the government can not usurp those God given rights, then we can be assured we still have the unhindered right to be as well armed as any military both for self defense and to defend our country. There has been no amendment changing the second amendment no matter what laws may have changed the definition of the militia. Remember, the british soldiers were not only trying to disarm the militia. They were trying to disarm the whole of the colonists. The act of which effort was the spark that ignighted the revolutionary war. My ancestors of the Moulton line were there.
@@Kirivon the 2nd amendment was to have people owning weapons, so that you CAN have a militia. A militia isn’t required. Being in one isn’t required. Having a militia has no bearing on having guns. You for things completely backwards. Having a gun is like having roads for cars. Cars aren’t required for roads to exist. Roads are required so that cars can be used. You wrote so much, and yet you wrote so little. Maybe read what the founders said. And remember that it wasn’t a militia that defeated the British. It was everyone in the country.
@@jamesbizs The 2A literally starts with "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State." I don't see how you can just completely ignore that part of it when interpreting the intent of the amendment. Also context is important, if we think of who the founding fathers were--wealthy merchants and land owners. There's a reason we have the electoral college and why they were so worried about "tyranny of the majority." They explicitly did not want a direct democracy, because they did not want the common man rising to power as that would threaten their wealth and status. Governments exist to protect the interests of those in power, aka the wealthy elites. Given the time period in which the article was written and given who the people writing it were it seems more likely that the founding fathers were more concerned with being able to source a fighting force to protect their own assets, rather than secure rights of the common man. People do things that are in their own best interest, that's simple human nature. And the people who are in power to make the rules are, always have been, and always will be the upper class. I'm not really making a judgement on whether that is good or bad, it's just the basic reality in which we live. Also people make it seem like the individual rights interpretation of the 2A is some obvious thing but it's been debated in courts for a hundred years. Moreover, the individual right to bear arms interpretation has only existed since 2008--with the District of Columbia v. Heller ruling. Prior to that it was entirely constitutional for states to ban firearms. Moreover it passed with a 5-4 ruling. If literally 1 of those votes fell a different way, carbines would probably be illegal in most democratic states right now, and it would be entirely constitutional.
I am a single female over 55 with arthritis and other chronic pain issues. The reason I have a firearm and a CCW in my state of Pennsylvania, is for self defense and protection of myself and my son with special needs. We travel mostly in our home state, but sometimes venture over state lines of adjoining states. All of our travels are "touristy". Traveling with it locked away and unloaded defeats the definition of self defense! It appears the laws are not made to protect me and mine. But rather charge me with a crime. I guess they'd rather feel bad if we're murdered, and spend money and time searching for our killers!!!! Not having constitutional carry is ludicrous!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Right seems stupid doesn't it? I mean why carry a fire arm and if you have one, why store the magazine and gun away from each other, there goes your protection out the window.
If you travel through NY or NJ and stop , or are stopped for a traffic violation , and you are dumb enough to say you are transporting a firearm, or the container is seen, expect to be arrested. If you are dumb enough to travel through NJ and they find a single round of hollowpoints ammunition, you will be arrested. Travel at your own risk.
Simple don’t get pulled over lol. And don’t open carry. As a truck driver we was told to never carry but it’s not their life they put at risk so they don’t care.
If you are truly a lawyer, why are you not familiar with the 2nd amendment? Having and Bearing a firearm is not "transporting" it. The second amendment has not deferred any authority to state or federal entities. That "right" belongs to the sovereign individual.
I'm sure he knows enough about the 2nd amendment but this video only is about carrying across state lines. as far as your definition on the 2nd i would say you need to tell that to the judges in CA. NY, NJ MA ...ect and see where it gets you, sorry to say
This should not be a problem. I have the privilege to drive anywhere in the US. But my right to bear arms does not cross state lines. Something is wrong with that.

@@rcre7052 good comment. This begs the question, how is someone from northern New England supposed to visit any other part of the country, with a gun. I'm from New Hampshire, nothing is illegal here. But I absolutely have to drive though MA, CT, RI NY and/or NJ to visit any other state in the union. I frequently go to the midwest, that requires going through MA, NY and NJ based on the route I take. My main carry gun is a Glock, that doesn't have 2 safteys so isn't legal in MA. My mags are more than 10 rounds, so not legal in NY or NJ either. How am I supposed to go other places if I can't bring any of my guns through the states I HAVE to drive through? If there was a route I could take to avoid those states I would take it, but the only other route goes through Canada, and I sure can't take that one. But I also don't go anywhere without my carry gun, and at least an AR15.
If only we had an amendment to the Constitution that guaranteed our right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Then all of this would be moot.
I have CCW in PA. I live two miles from MD and work there. I have family just over the border of MD in WV. I can go through three states in 15 minutes. I am covered in PA and WV but to drive 10 minutes through restrictive MD I have to go through all the crap. I ride a motorcycle and it is a pain in the butt to carry a lock box and such.
Thanks for the video, I wasn't aware of the FOPA law. Yet another reminder that all guns laws are stupid and an infringement. Also, don't travel into or even through non-gun friendly states. And if you do, don't spend a single dime in these states as possible. Don't support anti-gun states with your dollars.
The guy from Florida carrying on a boat coming to NY...the problem was that the guy was a law bidding citizen not a gang banger...otherwise he would have never been charged ❗
When NJ Gov. Murphy banned the sale and possession high capacity mags (anything over 10 reds.) ask him how many mags were turned in, he will most likely lie.
The laws make it useless for a person to carry a firearm especially in California. You have to balance the risk of being able to defend yourself against the risk of having to defend yourself against illegal laws.
Excellent breakdown. Quick Question. If I were moving from Indiana to New Hampshire and have no option geographically but to transit through New York, How could I legally get an AR-15 and or high cap magazines to New Hampshire? Would I need to ship them via FedEX (for the mags) and do a dealer to dealer transfer to myself?
You can legally send guns from yourself to yourself with no FFL. For instance, a local competitor here in NM ships her guns to her hotel in OH, competes, then sends the guns back to her home.
here’s a legal loophole: put the gun in a sealed box that’s clearly addressed to you and ONLY you. unless the cops have enough probable cause (like they saw you running from a crime scene wearing a ski mask type of probable cause) they are legally restricted from searching that box without your consent. if they do, it won’t take a great, expensive lawyer and months of fighting in court to dodge a felony. it MIGHT take a night at the local jail, and some cheap, half decent lawyer you bought off facebook marketplace to beat the case. you could also sue the local pd, or if you’re feeling lucky, the entire state and make some money off of it. just be careful if you do this in New Jersey, New York, or california. they’ll do anything, regardless of whether or not they legally can, to slap you with a felony gun charge. from my time living in jersey, the cops are pretty chill, so i won’t worry about them breaking the law. but cali or ny on the other hand... yeah good luck lmao
Good information. I took a class at Sportsmans Warehouse to obtain concealed carry from Arizona and Utah as I drive from Oregon to Texas a couple of times a year. I bought your book "Legal Heat" and always travel with it. Such a pain driving through California. Everything locked in a case in the back of my 4RNR. Try to avoid driving through there when possible.
You could be perfectly legal but if you are stopped and they know you have guns they can still take them. You know to determine if the are legal firearms. After s year or so they might get back to you to tell you yeah those guns were legal but as the policy of this department they will be destroyed.
I had already researched this but its good to get validation. This is why I avoid NY, NJ, and CA like the plague. I didn't even think about boating. How on earth did you get stopped while boating? What did he do to even get stopped and searched. I would like to see details on that case.
That's ridiculous. It's even more restrictive than driving with a gun through California. At least you wouldn't have to keep the freaking ammo in a separate container.
It depends. I believe in New York, you can't even have guns parts on you. They consider just a part an entire firearm. You can't enter the state with any gun parts.
@@jhutch1470 That's definitely not the case. I live in NY (stuck here due to family) so I'm pretty well versed in the law. You can absolutely transport guns and gun parts into New York. You can't LEGALLY bring anything NY defines as a "firearm" (handgun aside from FOPA, SBR, SBS, AOW, or other NFA stuff), an "assault weapon" as defined by the law, or high capacity (read standard capacity.... Anything over 10 rounds) magazine. You CAN transport a handgun in accordance with federal law, but the mags have to be low capacity. Rifle or shotgun is fine as long as it doesn't meet the criteria for an assault weapon under state law. It's all a bunch of convoluted nonsense, but I want to make sure people are as informed as possible. Take all of that with a grain of salt though, as I'm most definitely not a lawyer lol.
He needed to also talk about the ammunition. NJ doesn’t allow hollow points, Green Tips, etc. you get a year for each round. Allegedly. So, I’d check what ammo is banned when passing through several states too.
Could we assume that any such firearm transportation charge could easily result in a felony conviction, costing the owner of his right to own any firearm in the future?
Best thing to do, follow the speed limit, make sure you have a full tank of fuel before going into said state, and if stopped by a cop, refuse any search and answer zero questions not pertaining to the actual stop.
Must be going to a legal place gtfoh. Don't worry about me or where I'm going! I hate that everything is nosey no privacy for a law abiding citizen. Almost feel like I'm literally in a commi state.
Common sense. Law built on common sense. Hopefully the police that pull you over will have some, too. Fortunately, most all do, and as long as you are honestly transporting you won't get in any trouble. Me, I would avoid the gun grabbing states like the plague.
So Basically if i have a 30 round magazine which is legal in florida and maine and I travel through NJ going from one to the other I am a criminal. got it.
The reality of the right will be of little comfort while sitting in a cell anticipating thousands of legal bills. I look at these states as a foreign country.
WRONG. even if FOPA covers you & you & 100% compliant that will not stop Leo or DA from Charging you. lkeep firearms locked in their cases, maybe disassembled, lock with pad locks & cable wrapped cases through the frame of the trunk. If you glove box when lock with a key acts as a valet lock for the truck lock it.. Keep license registration insurance at the ready have it out before the leo approaches your window. New Jersey maintains you have to prove you own your firearms, carry copy of receipt. I use to shoot sporting clays M&M , &Cedar Hills NJ, & Sedona, Orvis in New York. other places in NY.

I am a Law Abiding Firearms Owner in the State of South Australia and have been Licensed here for over 35 Years (pre the Ban on semiautomatic Rifles being Owned by City Slickers such as Myself).
Under South Australian Firearms Law, I am Required to drive directly from My Home to My Gun Range or Firearms Club or Hunting Ground or such like, Without Detour or Delay.
Even the simple act of stopping for Fuel or to get Myself a Drink on a Hot Australian Summer’s Day could get Me into serious trouble, about transporting My Firearms.
Thus such Weapons Transportation is Planned and well thought out before it happens and local communities and businesses en route miss out completely from any kind of support I might otherwise have given them.
In this way My Weapons and Ammunition remain completely under My Control at All Times and are never left alone, even secured in a locked car.
On such journeys I can not even transport an Unlicensed Passenger with Me because of the legal difficulties doing so might cause for Me or My Passenger, if I were stopped by Police for any reason.
@@Blackwater_House when they start trying to take our guns they will have a hard time ..one they have zero idea who owns what..anything they think we own,we lost in a boating accident..I am having lunch right now and have my sidearm next to my right arm as I type this
I think that's what they want.
transporting a firearm by vehicle through New York state can be risky if you do not have a New York firearms license. We rely on the federal Firearm Owners Protection Act (FOPA) to protect us on interstate travel. But there have been cases where the New York Police have arrested persons who had fully complied with the law, the police simply ignored the federal law. The New York State Police and the New York police Department do not recognize the FOPA and will arrest travelers passing through the state even if they have complied with the law. They will leave it up to the courts to sort out. This means you could end up in a jail cell for a few days waiting for the courts to release you.
So how can we avoid that? You could try taking a copy of the FOPA, (Title 18, Part 1, Chapter 44 926A) with you to show any officers if you were stopped. But in my opinion they would be to busy to read it or not even understand the law if they did read it, after all they are not lawyers. And if they have been instructed to ignore the FOPA then no amount of debate with them will help you.

Hey im not a plane person i would either travel by road or water with that being said what are the laws regarding taking a firearm be it a pistol or rifle on a cruise/ferry or any other type of boat travel
question;
can I cross my state line... and return to my state after a non-stop drive through bordering state?
I plan to relocate from NYC to Florida how do I go about transporting and registering my legal gun.
What registering? isn't that only done by the original buyer at time of purchase?
I'm confused, if you can't travel through a state with a prohibited item and that's the only way (terrestrially) to get to your destination; how do you get the item there... Secondly, how does FedEx and UPS travel with prohibited shipments through these states?

That’s tricky.
As a general rule, no.
One known exception is Illinois.
If you have a CCW in your home state but NOT in Illinois, you CAN transport a loaded firearm in a vehicle BUT you can under NO circumstances take that firearm out of the vehicle.
That’s the only one I know of.
Other than that, it’s best to lock it up properly and store it.
It’s ridiculous.

Great point.

@David Wang Alright moron, you wanna come in here and start crap, be my guest. When the Founders wrote the word "militia" they were referring to "all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense." Nowadays, the militia includes every law-abiding citizen, regardless of gender, ethnicity, or race. The word "militia" in the context of the 2nd Amendment is not limited to a government fighting force. Also, I love part of the 2nd Amendment you quote completely debunks your argument. You seem to have skipped over "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms" part of the 2nd Amendment in your haste to post nonsense.

I would have then been forced to spend thousands and thousands of dollars in legal fees, all of which would have devastated my family financially.
I basically had to decide what took priority, my family's safety or my family's finances. Safety won out, but I was nervous as heck going through those communist states.

Constitution doesn't state what type of person can have a gun and what type can't. Law abiding or not you have the right to bear arms until you commit a crime with one.

They told him they were going to search it anyway. They got a canine unit and had his vehicle emptied and searched and they left him and all of his stuff on the side of the road. He was not ticketed for anything, even though he didn't do anything illegal.
@@Baman21 Some cops will search regardless of having any suspicion or permission. They'll make something up and harass you until you give them something to work with. And when the K9 comes along and "gets a hit" try to get video if you can. Some dogs will fake a hit when the handler says a specific word or makes a specific move.
There was a story recently about a dog that retired with 100% hit rate. Every. Single. Time it was brought out, it got a hit. The dog had learned that when it got a hit, it was given a treat. Therefore it would fake hits because it wanted treats. I'd like to think that was just poor training, but it's possible the handler wanted *exactly* that behavior in order to get a high hit ratio. I hope it backfired in the end. If the dog gets a hit and absolutely nothing is found, that ought to count against the dog's credibility.

Funny how, whenever federal law is more restrictive than state law, we are told that federal law trumps state law. BUT, whenever STATE law is more restrictive than FEDERAL law, suddenly STATE law is supreme!
Poor guy, I would feel like a coward even saying these things aloud. I live in the U.S.A. and we have a Constitution, Bill of Rights says Amendment 2
Right to Bear Arms.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
[Ratified 12/15/1791]
Don't care who says anything different. This is the law.
Correct, but however illegal these made up laws are, you may still go to jail. The courts are in collusion with the corrupt politicians who put them in office.
What does a "well regulated militia" mean in this context? Or militia in general? The first Militia Act of 1792 states that: "each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia,... every citizen, so enrolled and notified, shall, within six months thereafter, provide himself with a good musket or firelock."
The following second Militia Act of 1792 states: "... each and every free able-bodied white male citizen of the respective States, resident therein, who is or shall be of age of eighteen years, and under the age of forty-five years (except as is herein after excepted) shall severally and respectively be enrolled in the militia, by the Captain or Commanding Officer of the company, within whose bounds such citizen shall reside ..."
The interesting part of the 2A for me is the "well regulated" line, which given the context of the militia acts of the following year, seems to imply that able-bodied citizens would be incorporated into an official chain of command that would be under the jurisdiction of its CO and ultimately the state.
Nothing I've found seems to back any interpretation of a "well regulated Militia" to mean unorganized militias of private citizens to protect their own interests, either with or against the government. The intent seems to be to create a fighting force to protect the state and federal government's interests and national security if needed, to be deployed and commanded by said state and federal governments and their officers. Although the issue of state vs federal control wasn't clearly defined and subsequently contested in later conflicts.
In any event, these legislations were ultimately superseded with the Militia Act of 1903, which created the United States National Guard. The national guard seems to fall under the definition of "well regulated militia," as it is comprised of ordinary citizens who are enrolled by a captain or CO.
Given that enrollment into said regulated militia is now voluntary rather than compulsory, and given that in the time period of the 2A enrollment was compulsory for all citizens, does the 2A still cover free citizens who have not enrolled in militia (e.g. national guard) duties and thus are not "well regulated"?
@@Kirivon being that at the time the amendment was written all men were or would be members of the militia, and were required to be armed and supplied with military grade weapons, as well as proficient in their use. And weapons were critical to one's God given right to self defence, which falls under the umbrella of the 10 amendments which are there to ensure the government can not usurp those God given rights, then we can be assured we still have the unhindered right to be as well armed as any military both for self defense and to defend our country. There has been no amendment changing the second amendment no matter what laws may have changed the definition of the militia. Remember, the british soldiers were not only trying to disarm the militia. They were trying to disarm the whole of the colonists. The act of which effort was the spark that ignighted the revolutionary war. My ancestors of the Moulton line were there.
@@Kirivon the 2nd amendment was to have people owning weapons, so that you CAN have a militia. A militia isn’t required. Being in one isn’t required. Having a militia has no bearing on having guns. You for things completely backwards. Having a gun is like having roads for cars. Cars aren’t required for roads to exist. Roads are required so that cars can be used. You wrote so much, and yet you wrote so little. Maybe read what the founders said. And remember that it wasn’t a militia that defeated the British. It was everyone in the country.
@@jamesbizs The 2A literally starts with "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State." I don't see how you can just completely ignore that part of it when interpreting the intent of the amendment.
Also context is important, if we think of who the founding fathers were--wealthy merchants and land owners. There's a reason we have the electoral college and why they were so worried about "tyranny of the majority." They explicitly did not want a direct democracy, because they did not want the common man rising to power as that would threaten their wealth and status.
Governments exist to protect the interests of those in power, aka the wealthy elites. Given the time period in which the article was written and given who the people writing it were it seems more likely that the founding fathers were more concerned with being able to source a fighting force to protect their own assets, rather than secure rights of the common man.
People do things that are in their own best interest, that's simple human nature. And the people who are in power to make the rules are, always have been, and always will be the upper class. I'm not really making a judgement on whether that is good or bad, it's just the basic reality in which we live.
Also people make it seem like the individual rights interpretation of the 2A is some obvious thing but it's been debated in courts for a hundred years. Moreover, the individual right to bear arms interpretation has only existed since 2008--with the District of Columbia v. Heller ruling. Prior to that it was entirely constitutional for states to ban firearms. Moreover it passed with a 5-4 ruling. If literally 1 of those votes fell a different way, carbines would probably be illegal in most democratic states right now, and it would be entirely constitutional.
I am a single female over 55 with arthritis and other chronic pain issues. The reason I have a firearm and a CCW in my state of Pennsylvania, is for self defense and protection of myself and my son with special needs. We travel mostly in our home state, but sometimes venture over state lines of adjoining states. All of our travels are "touristy". Traveling with it locked away and unloaded defeats the definition of self defense! It appears the laws are not made to protect me and mine. But rather charge me with a crime. I guess they'd rather feel bad if we're murdered, and spend money and time searching for our killers!!!! Not having constitutional carry is ludicrous!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So,you can't use the firearm for protection?
Right seems stupid doesn't it? I mean why carry a fire arm and if you have one, why store the magazine and gun away from each other, there goes your protection out the window.
CADOJ, you can not transport a firearm in a vehicle if the purpose is self defense.
This is California Law.
you must have a CA CCWP
If you travel through NY or NJ and stop , or are stopped for a traffic violation , and you are dumb enough to say you are transporting a firearm, or the container is seen, expect to be arrested. If you are dumb enough to travel through NJ and they find a single round of hollowpoints ammunition, you will be arrested. Travel at your own risk.
And this is why I have always passed on any opportunity to go to California, New York and New Jersey.
Since I lost all my AR's in a tragic boating accident, I don't have to worry about driving through CA.
If you are a CA resident, you must fill out a no longer in possession of a firearm.

Thank you 2A!
Simple don’t get pulled over lol. And don’t open carry. As a truck driver we was told to never carry but it’s not their life they put at risk so they don’t care.
If you are truly a lawyer, why are you not familiar with the 2nd amendment? Having and Bearing a firearm is not "transporting" it. The second amendment has not deferred any authority to state or federal entities. That "right" belongs to the sovereign individual.
He's giving you sage advice to keep you out of jail in restrictive states. The video was just that, not his opinion of the second amendment.
I'm sure he knows enough about the 2nd amendment but this video only is about carrying across state lines. as far as your definition on the 2nd i would say you need to tell that to the judges in CA. NY, NJ MA ...ect and see where it gets you, sorry to say
This should not be a problem. I have the privilege to drive anywhere in the US. But my right to bear arms does not cross state lines. Something is wrong with that.
Glad I watched this, I've driven through NY and NJ with banned stuff several times.
Hopefully you never get stopped in NY or NJ....

But there have been cases where the New York Police have arrested persons who had fully complied with the law, the police simply ignored the federal law. The New York State Police and the New York police Department do not recognize the FOPA and will arrest travelers passing through the state even if they have complied with the law. They will leave it up to the courts to sort out. This means you could end up in a jail cell for a few days waiting for the courts to release you.
So how can we avoid that? You could try taking a copy of the FOPA, (Title 18, Part 1, Chapter 44 926A) with you to show any officers if you were stopped. But in my opinion they would be to busy to read it or not even understand the law if they did read it, after all they are not lawyers. And if they have been instructed to ignore the FOPA then no amount of debate with them will help you.
@@rcre7052 good comment. This begs the question, how is someone from northern New England supposed to visit any other part of the country, with a gun. I'm from New Hampshire, nothing is illegal here. But I absolutely have to drive though MA, CT, RI NY and/or NJ to visit any other state in the union. I frequently go to the midwest, that requires going through MA, NY and NJ based on the route I take. My main carry gun is a Glock, that doesn't have 2 safteys so isn't legal in MA. My mags are more than 10 rounds, so not legal in NY or NJ either. How am I supposed to go other places if I can't bring any of my guns through the states I HAVE to drive through? If there was a route I could take to avoid those states I would take it, but the only other route goes through Canada, and I sure can't take that one. But I also don't go anywhere without my carry gun, and at least an AR15.
To add to this, NY and NJ will not issue FOID to non-residents, so wtf am I to do? They leave no legal options.
If only we had an amendment to the Constitution that guaranteed our right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Then all of this would be moot.
The second amendment makes it moot.
I have CCW in PA. I live two miles from MD and work there. I have family just over the border of MD in WV. I can go through three states in 15 minutes. I am covered in PA and WV but to drive 10 minutes through restrictive MD I have to go through all the crap. I ride a motorcycle and it is a pain in the butt to carry a lock box and such.
There should be NO LAW against firearms in any fashion. The 2nd amendment overrules ALL LAWS. ALL LAWS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the video, I wasn't aware of the FOPA law. Yet another reminder that all guns laws are stupid and an infringement. Also, don't travel into or even through non-gun friendly states. And if you do, don't spend a single dime in these states as possible. Don't support anti-gun states with your dollars.
The guy from Florida carrying on a boat coming to NY...the problem was that the guy was a law bidding citizen not a gang banger...otherwise he would have never been charged ❗
In layman's terms.... don't get stopped don't get caught....same as it's ever been.... it's the code of the road.keep your powder dry and good luck!!!
When NJ Gov. Murphy banned the sale and possession high capacity mags (anything over 10 reds.) ask him how many mags were turned in, he will most likely lie.
The laws make it useless for a person to carry a firearm especially in California. You have to balance the risk of being able to defend yourself against the risk of having to defend yourself against illegal laws.
Please Make A Video - What's The LAWS For OTR TRUCK DRIVERS?
They are not allowed to anything but a cell and a cup coffee no firearms period.
Traveling is when I need my gun readily available the most.
This violates "bear" in every way, shape, and form.
Excellent breakdown. Quick Question. If I were moving from Indiana to New Hampshire and have no option geographically but to transit through New York, How could I legally get an AR-15 and or high cap magazines to New Hampshire? Would I need to ship them via FedEX (for the mags) and do a dealer to dealer transfer to myself?
You can legally send guns from yourself to yourself with no FFL. For instance, a local competitor here in NM ships her guns to her hotel in OH, competes, then sends the guns back to her home.
So sad that this video even has to be made. Appreciate the information though! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hard to believe we still comply with these infringements of our God Given rights.
No step on snake.
Step #6 Pray that you are not carjacked during this time because you are Sol. And the criminals just gained a free arsenal.
here’s a legal loophole: put the gun in a sealed box that’s clearly addressed to you and ONLY you. unless the cops have enough probable cause (like they saw you running from a crime scene wearing a ski mask type of probable cause) they are legally restricted from searching that box without your consent. if they do, it won’t take a great, expensive lawyer and months of fighting in court to dodge a felony.
it MIGHT take a night at the local jail, and some cheap, half decent lawyer you bought off facebook marketplace to beat the case. you could also sue the local pd, or if you’re feeling lucky, the entire state and make some money off of it.
just be careful if you do this in New Jersey, New York, or california. they’ll do anything, regardless of whether or not they legally can, to slap you with a felony gun charge. from my time living in jersey, the cops are pretty chill, so i won’t worry about them breaking the law.
but cali or ny on the other hand... yeah good luck lmao
Just don’t get pulled over.....pretty simple
A permit to carry a firearm should be like a license to operate a motor vehicle.
Valid in all 50 states.

Good information. I took a class at Sportsmans Warehouse to obtain concealed carry from Arizona and Utah as I drive from Oregon to Texas a couple of times a year. I bought your book "Legal Heat" and always travel with it. Such a pain driving through California. Everything locked in a case in the back of my 4RNR. Try to avoid driving through there when possible.
So if I stop at every rest stop to drop a log I'm TOURING TOILETS?
I'm moving east, how am I going to get my collection to my new home? I guess I'm not telling.
I actually have a new mans to handle state lines. Once in Texas, never leave Texas.
You could be perfectly legal but if you are stopped and they know you have guns they can still take them. You know to determine if the are legal firearms. After s year or so they might get back to you to tell you yeah those guns were legal but as the policy of this department they will be destroyed.
My defense argument: “SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED”
Moved from New York State to West Virginia yesterday. To hell with New York and Governor Meatball Gavone.
Ohhhh so You cant stop for gas or food LOL
Why do we the people take this crap? If you are on US soil, you should be able to be armed!
I had already researched this but its good to get validation. This is why I avoid NY, NJ, and CA like the plague. I didn't even think about boating. How on earth did you get stopped while boating? What did he do to even get stopped and searched. I would like to see details on that case.
That's ridiculous. It's even more restrictive than driving with a gun through California. At least you wouldn't have to keep the freaking ammo in a separate container.
Would transporting completely disassembled firearms and having the ammo in the same case be acceptable and offer more protection?
It depends. I believe in New York, you can't even have guns parts on you. They consider just a part an entire firearm. You can't enter the state with any gun parts.
Protection from who is the question
@@jhutch1470 That's definitely not the case. I live in NY (stuck here due to family) so I'm pretty well versed in the law. You can absolutely transport guns and gun parts into New York. You can't LEGALLY bring anything NY defines as a "firearm" (handgun aside from FOPA, SBR, SBS, AOW, or other NFA stuff), an "assault weapon" as defined by the law, or high capacity (read standard capacity.... Anything over 10 rounds) magazine. You CAN transport a handgun in accordance with federal law, but the mags have to be low capacity. Rifle or shotgun is fine as long as it doesn't meet the criteria for an assault weapon under state law. It's all a bunch of convoluted nonsense, but I want to make sure people are as informed as possible. Take all of that with a grain of salt though, as I'm most definitely not a lawyer lol.
So, lesson learned: don't cross state lines.
He needed to also talk about the ammunition. NJ doesn’t allow hollow points, Green Tips, etc. you get a year for each round. Allegedly. So, I’d check what ammo is banned when passing through several states too.
Keep and BEAR arms shall not be infringed.
Could we assume that any such firearm transportation charge could easily result in a felony conviction, costing the owner of his right to own any firearm in the future?
Best thing to do, follow the speed limit, make sure you have a full tank of fuel before going into said state, and if stopped by a cop, refuse any search and answer zero questions not pertaining to the actual stop.
I can't seem to understand the logic behind calling certain firearms " assault weapons"
Do you consider a select-fire AR-15, an Assault Rifle?
I hear you. A SAA was an assault weapon in 1873. As was a Trapdoor Springfield.
Must be going to a legal place gtfoh. Don't worry about me or where I'm going! I hate that everything is nosey no privacy for a law abiding citizen. Almost feel like I'm literally in a commi state.
Common sense. Law built on common sense. Hopefully the police that pull you over will have some, too. Fortunately, most all do, and as long as you are honestly transporting you won't get in any trouble.
Me, I would avoid the gun grabbing states like the plague.
My constitutional rights don't end where their state lines begin.
When will the people that truly matter finally make their stand?
Sounds like infringement to me..
So Basically if i have a 30 round magazine which is legal in florida and maine and I travel through NJ going from one to the other I am a criminal. got it.
that is right.
Did you just learn this? Lol
Put them in your car and drive. The second amendment applies to every state.
The reality of the right will be of little comfort while sitting in a cell anticipating thousands of legal bills. I look at these states as a foreign country.
CADOJ, you can not transport a firearm in a vehicle if the purpose is self defense.
This is California Law.
you must have a CA CCWP
@@aolvaar8792 It is an unconstitutional law that needs to be overturned.

Democracy is a form of government in which 51% inflict their will on the 49%.
WRONG. even if FOPA covers you & you & 100% compliant that will not stop Leo or DA from Charging you. lkeep firearms locked in their cases, maybe disassembled, lock with pad locks & cable wrapped cases through the frame of the trunk. If you glove box when lock with a key acts as a valet lock for the truck lock it.. Keep license registration insurance at the ready have it out before the leo approaches your window. New Jersey maintains you have to prove you own your firearms, carry copy of receipt. I use to shoot sporting clays M&M , &Cedar Hills NJ, & Sedona, Orvis in New York. other places in NY. I would spend upward of 20K to 25K a year supporting local businesses in the pursuit as an avid sporting clays enthusiast too attend Sat or Sunday Tournaments. Haven't shot in a tournament in the north east since 2015.
All firearms laws should be federal level. We all live in the same country and should be treated equally.
All gun laws are infringements you fool! Stop playing their game. We need mass rebellion from gun owners in local districts, cities & states. Cops should be backing their citizens’ voices or made to resign immediately.
Step 6, driver around that state. If possible.....Sit back and watch it destroy itself... guard your state you live in..that allows it...
