[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 532911, member: 35183"] How many other states have DNR restrictions that prohibit the transportation of rifles on any form of wheeled vehicle unless unloaded in chamber and magazine and cased ? That we are generally not allowed to transport rifles outside of their cases or with loaded magazines on public roads seems to be enough of an infringement already, but on private land ???? What is the status of this issue in Colorado, Wyoming, Utah and Montana ? Reference to Michigan law here:[url=http://www.michigan.gov/dnr/0,1607,7-153-10366_37141_37706-31579--,00.html]DNR - Transporting Firearms, Crossbows, and Bows and Arrows[/url] Transporting Firearms, Crossbows, and Bows and Arrows These rules apply whether your vehicle is parked, stopped, moving or is on private or public property. Firearms must be unloaded in the barrel, and all arrows must be in a quiver when a hunter is afield outside the legal hunting hours. At all times when carried in or on a motor vehicle, including snowmobiles: * Rifles, shotguns, muzzleloading and other firearms must be unloaded in both barrel and magazine and enclosed in a case or carried in the trunk of a vehicle. * Crossbows, slingshots, and bows and arrows must be enclosed in a case or unstrung or carried in the trunk of a vehicle. At all times, when carried in or on an ORV: * Rifles, shotguns, muzzleloading and other firearms must be unloaded in both barrel and magazine and enclosed in a case or equipped with and made inoperative by a manufactured keylocked trigger-housing mechanism. * Crossbows, slingshots, and bows and arrows must be enclosed in a case or unstrung. At all times, when carried in or on a motor-propelled boat or sailboat: * Rifles, shotguns, muzzleloading and other firearms must be unloaded in both barrel and magazine when the motor is operating or the boat is under sail. * Firearms may not be loaded until the forward momentum of the boat has ceased. Exception: These rules do not apply to a pistol carried under authority of a concealed pistol license or properly carried under authority of a specific exception from the requirement of a concealed pistol license. See Statewide Handgun Regulations. [/QUOTE]
