We're talking about gun clubs in Florida and the second I mention that I rented a place in The Villages and will be doing it again next year he got very animated and listed 3 things about the Villages that he was sure were true about what goes on in The Villages. Even though he's never been to The Villages.

2 of the things I'd heard before and were related but the third was something new to me.

Any guesses on what the 3 things were?
To shut him up ask him how he got his gun from Florida to New Hampshire LEGALLY.

The stuff about the northeast is 100% true.

We had that discussion. He's not but he's sure he will be able to talk his way out of trouble if he has to. Something about needing to put down a horse if he has an accident with his trailer.

I told him I'd keep bail money handy.

I got my non-resident permit in Pennsylvania so I'll be legal when I stop there on the drive down 81. The next stop is a constitutional carry state at a friends house and I now have my Florida non-resident permit so I'll be legal in Fla.

Biggest problem state is NY but that's only 60 miles of road and not near NYC where they ignore the federal law allowing firearms transporting as long as they are unloaded and locked in a trunk.

Weed Smoking.

I quickly corrected him on the weed smoking.
In many years in the Villages haven’t seen or heard about number one or two on the list despite the non stop national media hit job stories. As far as number three on the list, occasionally see or smell people partaking. That being said, weed use in the Villages is minuscule compared to up north, where recreational is legal in many states. We have attended a couple outdoor concerts up north this summer where it seems like at least half the attendees are lighting up. Never hear about that in the national media.

Can confirm. What you've heard is true. The northeast is awesome.

Probably either in the trunk of his car, or in a checked bag in the belly of an airplane...

It's NYC that's the problem, not the rest of the State...

No need for a carry permit for interstate travel with a gun, as long as you follow the Federal guidelines...

Now, if you want to conceal carry the entire way, that's another can of worms...

The key word in that statement is travel.

Plan to stop at a hotel during your "travel"? Federal guidelines don't cover that.

Yes they do. They consider your hotel room your "residence"...

Now, hotel chains may have their own rules and certain states have their own rules on loaded firearms at home, so you should be familiar with those rules...

1. There is dog poop everywhere.
2. Anybody who buys a house south of 44 is an idiot.
3. There's not enough movie theaters.

What did I win?

People posting nonsense is pretty typical anywhere on the internet but it's not often that the nonsense could get you thrown in jail if you were to believe it to be true.

This is one of those cases.

The federal law on interstate transport of firearms makes no mention of hotels or residences.

In addition you need to be traveling from a state where you are legally allowed to possess the firearm to another state where you are legally allowed to posses the firearm.

There is an evil reason that msm and social media will say false bad things about the Villages.
