Texas to Oklahoma (Noob Question)

#1

Post by StexFJR »

I'm travelling from South Texas to OKC this weekend. I'd like to take my Kahr along and do some shooting with my uncle on his farmland. How can I transport it legally? I don't have my CHL yet and don't want to jeapordize it while its being processed. I'm travelling in my sister's Nissan Murano, has no trunk. Advice anyone???

Thanks in advance

In a box, gun rug, case,... unloaded. Ammo in separate area should be fine. If you have a lock on the box that would be more than enough. Should be the same in OK. I would treat them the same if I were going there myself. If there is concern, call the AG in OK.

Carry it in plain view with no round in the chamber or loaded magazine inserted in the weapon. Oklahoma law is very explicit on when a firearm is and is not considered loaded or concealed. A loaded magazine does not make a weapon loaded unless it is inserted into the weapon. The law says that anyone may transport an unloaded and unconcealed firearm in a vehicle at anytime.

Thanks to all that responded.
I'm back from my trip, and no I didn't take my pistol. For my own reasons.
