Interstate Travel with Firearms,New England to Florida

Possession, no. But there are lots of other things like storage, keeping ammo separate, parts removed, cased & locked & so on.
 
You may be over thinking this.
What are the odds, of all the people driving that route, it will be you being stopped by the cops?
And if you are, what are the odds that the police will want to search your car?
Two 70 year olds?
And if by some very unlikely circumstance you are stopped,
Don't invite or allow any kind of searches if asked, take the ticket without complaint or comment and keep on trucking.
Or avoid the entire thing, stay home and just turn the thermostat up.

I agree. Plan your journey and just drive normally. The police do not have detectors to see if you have guns in your trunk.

The weather in Florida isn't too bad this time of year, especially considering the recent forecasts showing major ick heading to NE for Christmas.
 
There have been several of those since & in addition to that one.

Its currently a hot topic in MD as to how or if there is an actual or De Facto mechanism in place which allows the LEO doing the stop to somehow access out of state records to initiate & proceed with such a stop based on out of state paperwork.

The current thinking is once is bad luck, twice is coincidence & the third time it is enemy action.
 
I hate to derail the legal aspect of this but what part of Florida you planning on staying in?

Our weather is still pretty good but we're getting the occasional flurry of this random white stuff that falls from the sky. It's not rain but something much colder.:p

Hope to see you in the Panhandle!
