carrying to florida

[Ripleydog]

I have read the posts and see that the states I will be driving through (Kentucky, Tennessee, Georiga, and Florida) honor my IN permit. I also see I can carry while in Florida. I was wondering if any of the states I will be driving through have any regulations for carrying the gun in the vehicle. Does it have to be unloaded ect....

Go to this website & click the states you'll be in. It has some pretty good information.

Here's another good site. Just go down on the left to the "Info By State."

If I'm not mistaken, you can carry loaded through all of the states mentioned. I just did mere months ago.

thanks to everyone for the help. It looks like Tennessee requires it to be unloaded but all others are fine. Thanks again.

Florida is concealed carry only so be sure to have it tucked away while there.

You didn't happen to be in Cabelas about two three weeks ago looking for an IWB holster, did you?

There was a guy OC in the holster aisle, said he was traveling to FL and would be required to conceal there. I pointed out and recommended the Galco IWB's

Just make SURE it's tucked away.

Wasn't me, I carry a M+P in a blade-tech paddle. After spending hundreds of dollars I love rockin' the blade-tech, won't see me looking for holsters!

I dont see where it states this, can you clarify? TN is reciprocal I thought.

Also some states dont allow carry in bars.

I carried to Florida a couple of months ago with no issues whatsoever. Just remember that OC is illegal in Florida.

Also check with Florida on bullets, they don't allow some hallow points.

It's only a problem if you put yourself in a position to be stopped/questions/detained by police. I carry in those states all the time. If you don't get pulled over, it's never an issue. Not sure what happens if you DO get pulled over. I have never been.

this is what is posted on the stumble upon website when you click on Tennessee info.

Automobile carry:
Firearms must be unloaded and in plain view or secured in commercial gun cases anywhere in the vehicle.

OK I am very confused and I need some serious help!!! I checked the trip planner and the states I am driving thorough do honor my permit. But at the bottom of the link there is a federal firearms transport statute that says in the vehicle the guns must be unloaded. Can anyone look at the link and let me know about this statute?

It means statutes and reciprocity aside, you can carry through ANY state via the FFT guildelines.

Read the second paragraph relating to federal law on transportation of firearms here:
