What can truckers carry in Pa and cross country?

[FloridaState]

Can you carry a Surefire flash light, hammer, baseball bat, OC (Pepper Spray), and possibly a taser everywhere as a trucker?

Can you carry the above in Pa? I know Pa doesnt allow truckers to conceal carry but can they transport a rifle or shotgun to and from the area of use inside their truck?

Just curious and trying to find something to defend myself that can be legally carried in NJ and NYC. Can I carry a Surefire E2D, OC spray, and a folding knife in NYC and NJ? How do they feel about a baseball bat or hammer in your car? Is a 6 D mag light that is kept in a car something illegal? Not sure how these two states feel about bows or cross bows?

PA allows anyone with a LTCF or a license from ANY state to carry a loaded "firearm" (handgun/sbs/sbr) in a vehicle. People may also transport unloaded rifles and shotguns in PA. ...being a trucker has NO bearing on that matter.

As for NJ and NYS/NYS - keep the guns out of those states, any type of gun.. I wont go any further on legal alternative recommendations because those states are FUBAR when it comes to defensive tools.

Here is the Peacable Journey Law Again which explains what you were saying about being locked up and unloaded.

Title 18 Setcion 926(a). The peacable journey law.

TITLE 18–CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE

PART I–CRIMES

CHAPTER 44–FIREARMS

Sec. 926A. Interstate transportation of firearms

Notwithstanding any other provision of any law or any rule or
regulation of a State or any political subdivision thereof, any person
who is not otherwise prohibited by this chapter from transporting,
shipping, or receiving a firearm shall be entitled to transport a
firearm for any lawful purpose from any place where he may lawfully
possess and carry such firearm to any other place where he may lawfully
possess and carry such firearm if, during such transportation the
firearm is unloaded, and neither the firearm nor any ammunition being
transported is readily accessible or is directly accessible from the
passenger compartment of such transporting vehicle: Provided, That in
the case of a vehicle without a compartment separate from the driver’s
compartment the firearm or ammunition shall be contained in a locked
container other than the glove compartment or console.


also
an armored carrier (tractor trailer) through out the lower 48 and am required to be armed under Title 15 USC Section 5901 and PL 103-55 Section 107.24, when not under under a “secure” load we are required to unload and stow our weapons. Take Note: CA,WI, MD, IL, MA, NY, NJ DOT all have problems with drivers having guns. They don’t like it and find a way to cause you greif. I’ve had issues with WI DOT even under a secure load with a federal gun permit. We have even had drivers had their guns confiscated and taken to jail for having a loaded weapon under a general freight load in IL. Another issue is what kind of weapon you carry into what state, and what ammo, for instance civilian possession in CA you must not have more than a 10 round mag in a handgun, or have an AR-15 on your truck. Any “Tactical” or “Assault” long gun/ shotgun, pistol grip or folding stock will get you jail time in CA. NOTE: HOLLOW POINT HAND GUN AMMO IS ILLEGAL FOR CIVILIAN USE IN NJ AND YOU WILL BE PROSECUTED IF CAUGHT !

Damn... some states are so screwed up. Isn't NJ supposed to fall into the ocean sometime soon?

In NJ, a non-firearm isn't illegal UNTIL you use it as a weapon! using anything, pen, safety pin, anything as a weapon WILL result in weapons charges. When I worked in the Garbage State, I always had my 4-cell mag close to hand [still do] when driving but using it, even in self defense, in Nj will result in a backseat ride in a cop car.

It's not the object, it's the intent...SE New York is just as bad...

I thought that is what they sell "tire thumpers" for. They serve a lawful purpose....LOL

If that post isn`t your words you should really post the authors name cause it`s a hideous statement.
