Hope it works our for you. Agree about MD. I have to travel there and then to NJ in October. What a nightmare. Will leave everything at home unfortunately.

I've carried concealed legally in the Chicago area, never encountered a place where I couldn't carry. Of course I never had cause to use public transportation or go into govt building's, schools, etc. And I never saw a private business posted.

True, IL has more restrictions than Texas, but they have found clever workarounds. For example, IL recognizes unloaded "transport". You can unload, and pack your carry in your backpack in a portable safe and get on public transportation. Of course, you lose the protection of your weapon.
