RE: Roadtrip and firearm questions
The laws do vary from state to state. But, being a retired Trooper from Ohio, I see no problem with you carrying it. Accessibility is the big thing. If you are stopped, keep your hands on the grips and tell the officer what you are carrying and where it is at. I wouldn't want my wife, daughter, sister, etc. traveling without some kind of protection.
I would say that you might check into a taser. Personal tasers now, shoot two darts on wires, up to 21 feet, with a tingling 50,000 volts. It will put ya down, I know, I was tasered for fun.
If the taser doesn't keep him down, then go to the AR-15 or an RPG.
Have a good trip.

For example, it shows Missouri and Kansas not even allowing CCW Permits. Missouri has issued CCW Permits for a number of years, and Kansas has issued them since January 2007.
Here is a link that is updated on an almost daily basis, and will give you a true indication of 'who honors what'.

That being said, I travel around the country frequently, armed, and hold valid CCW Permits through my home state and other states (Non-Resident CCW Permits). With the permits I hold I am legal to carry in approximetly 40 states.
Bottom line is don't get stopped with a concealed weapon if you don't hold a valid permit for that specific jurisdiction..
From first hand knowledge (happened to a few I've ridden with) I will guarantee the outcome won't be pleasant.

What is the story with your sister?

... my sister in an Urn ...
... my sister in an Urn ...
I made a promise to my sister - to take her ashes to the canyon. She and I spent a great deal of time there - together and not together. She was very sick, for a very long time, and passed on young (58). That is what this trip is all about, I am setting her ashes free in a place she knew nothing but happy times.
Although, she would have gotten a much bigger kick out of it, if I would have said something like - " I always travel with my sister in an Urn - don't you?!"
You would have to know us... a bunch of cards, we are.

Sorry... I assumed everyone was current with that, since all of my posts on getting ready for this trip - my bad.

be very careful on your trip and sorry to here about your sister you should have great pride in honoring her final wish my prayers will be with you both. with that said I agree that if you dont have a permit keep the wepon and bullets seperate while riding but keep it loaded and close while camping. I would suggest mace mounted to your handle bars it wont kill but will hurt like hell and give you time to get to a safe place or away. god's speed

+1 on storeing it somewhere other than where you are storing the ammo. Me and some friends were stoped one time on a moutain road at a road block when I was younger. I had a gun and we were on federal land. I couldn't find my dad ins card so the cop asked if he couls search the truck. I said that was no problem and I pointed out that there was a gun under the frount seat with us. I had the ammoin the glove box if I remember. He said thanks for letting him know about it. He was cool with us from then on let us go.

I've used these for camping. and you can always use the fuel and just fill a few when ever you hit a station when you think there maynot be any around for a streatch.

Another option for carriyng gas is those fuel bottles for camping. MSR and ither companies make them. They only hold about one quart each, but are spill proof and made of aluminum.
as for carrying a pistol, I am a guy with military training and was a prison guard in a past life. I would carry myself as long as it is legal. I don't recommend carrying illegaly since going to prison is not worth it, however that would be your choice.

CCW laws (and what states honor other sate CCW Permits) change frequently, and the link you provided is nowhere near being 'current'.
For example, it shows Missouri and Kansas not even allowing CCW Permits. Missouri has issued CCW Permits for a number of years, and Kansas has issued them since January 2007.
Here is a link that is updated on an almost daily basis, and will give you a true indication of 'who honors what'.

That being said, I travel around the country frequently, armed, and hold valid CCW Permits through my home state and other states (Non-Resident CCW Permits). With the permits I hold I am legal to carry in approximetly 40 states.
Bottom line is don't get stopped with a concealed weapon if you don't hold a valid permit for that specific jurisdiction..
From first hand knowledge (happened to a few I've ridden with) I will guarantee the outcome won't be pleasant.
