Wondering the following (prep for an upcoming case):
In your state that has a permitting system for carry of handgun (looking for states outside my own):
1) can you transport your HANDGUN in a vehicle (trunk or otherwise) without a permit for the following purposes:
a) to go to a range to practice
b) to go to a gunsmith for repair
I would need state law citations (links would be great) or case law regarding these two subjects ...
In my state, you don't need a permit to transport a handgun to a gunsmith BUT its covered under an exception .. and the law does not require the state to show that a gun is functioning to obtain a conviction & an exception is an affirmative defense (which I believe creates an undue burden on a handgun owner under the 2nd amendment)...so if I can compare other state law it may be useful ... my state statue below
CGS 29-35 "...revolver from such person's place of residence or business to a place or individual where or by whom such pistol or revolver is to be repaired or while returning to such person's place of residence or business after the same has been repaired...
