Why this course

What it's actually about.

Transport rules are where otherwise careful people get into trouble, because the rules change at the state line and change again at the airport counter.

This course covers the practical framework for moving firearms lawfully and the questions to ask before a trip.

What it covers

  • Vehicle transport requirements and how they vary
  • Crossing state lines with a firearm
  • Air travel: declaring, casing and checking a firearm
  • Ammunition transport considerations
  • Common transport mistakes and their consequences

Who it's for

Road trippers, frequent flyers, and anyone who moves a firearm between homes.
