For 21 years, attorney and author J. Scott Kappas, Esq. has created an easily readable guide for firearm owners who carry and travel with firearms in the United Sates. In the 2017 edition of Traveler’s Guide to the Firearm Laws of the Fifty States, Kappas has compiled research and collected data by examining case law to assist the reader in rendering informed decisions. He has incorporated over 100 changes into the 21st edition regarding legislation and policy changes that apply to gun ownership and transportation of firearms in the United States.

The reader will find information on concealed carry, reciprocity for non-resident licensees, vehicle carry as well as the laws governing possession of all types of firearms. From Alabama to Wyoming, each state is afforded one page explaining firearm laws that are most relevant to travelers. This year’s edition has updated each state’s Traveler’s Checklist to detail which weapons are lawful for licensed carry as well as if each state offers permitless concealed carry. The Traveler’s Guide covers firearm regulations related to every common mode of travel including cars, boats, RVs, motorcycles and planes. Included this year is the Department of Defense Directive 5210.56, which details the firearm carry policy on Defense Department property. The Guide commences with legal terminology and explanations, then breaks down information by state. Readers will find a list of contact agencies cataloged by state in alphabetical order as well as a quick reference guide for reciprocity, recognition and permitless carry.
