I thank you all for this info but I'm not traveling anywhere right know. I'm looking for that one State that makes someone sepertate the gun, mag and bullet's. I went through what was linked but I couldn't find one. I have another question. Does the statement that I underlined ("AMMUNITION BEING TRANSPORTED IS READILY
ACCESABLE ") mean that loaded bullets in a mag would be consitered readily accesable?
