They gave him a VERY hard time and tore his car apart supposing he had the firearm with him. He had left in Fla trying to avoid just this situation. Get VERY familiar with interstate transportation of firearms (cased with firearm and ammo separated etc)

SO you're saying that he was pulled over in MD simply because they were able to cross reference his vehicle registration with the fact that he was somehow a known gun owner or LTCF holder from another state? There is no way that's probable cause for a stop or search.

I have heard about this from time to time and I feel it is an urban legend. You are correct about the probable cause for a search and states do not share that kind of information without a specific request.

I plan to do my own research but I would like to know if anyone knows of anything I should look into that stands out that I need to research. I don't even know if South and North Carolina even honor a PA license to carry. Basically I just want to know what to watch out for. Thanks in advance for any response.

do what Hodgie said!

Others have pretty much covered it. You can carry loaded in you glovebox or console.

You're not planning to go over the Memorial Day weekend, are you?

Doesn't matter; traffic in and around greater Myrtle Beach is always horrible. We stopped going in 2005.

To the OP: Be patient in the traffic, and leave EARLY for any scheduled event or appointment, especially from 1500 to 2000 hrs.

Enjoy!
