Very nice!
Thanks Let it bleed (I'm in the exact same position as dart here).
Is my interperetation correct in that a minor can transport a handgun unloaded in a locked container directly to or from the place of legal use of the handgun?
I doubt seriously that any cop in Oklahoma would arrest a 17 year old for having a .22 target pistol unloaded, and locked in his trunk (however, the kid would have to do something dumb for the cop to even know it was there in the first place) but it's always best to avoid risks.
