So in the near future I have to attend a family funeral in Connecticut. I am traveling there from Maine the morning of the service, and heading right back to Maine after it's over (a lot of driving but I'd rather not stay overnight in CT or MA) I'm hoping to be in CT for no more than like six to eight hours max.
I routinely carry, and can do so legally in both ME and NH. MA and CT are the issues.
Am I within the law if I unload my handgun, at the NH/Mass border and place it in a locked case in the trunk for the duration of my drive through MA and the time spent in CT for the funeral service? I figured I would leave it unloaded and in the case until I cross the border back into NH on the drive home. Or is there no legal way to pull this off?
What about long guns? Same situation?
There is lots of material on CT gun laws out there but not a lot on how they pertain to non-residents visiting the state that I can find.
Can anyone provide me with some info?
