Y'all also need to consider Indian Reservations when traveling through. They are not bound by state laws, but they do need to abide by federal law.WTR wrote: Wed Oct 23, 2019 12:37 pm I took mrvmax’s advice am began looking up individual States. TX and Missouri are fine. Unfortunately Oklahoma’s CC does not take effect and will still be restricted to an unloaded pistol until Nov. 1st and Illinois plain sucks. I’ve got to convince her she needs a license. She did say we need to go to the range. Thanks all.

If the IL law has changed recently, could you please contact the website administrator and ask them to update their information? Thank you.
