Pardon me if this isn't posted in the correct sub-forum but I have a few questions regarding my AR-15 OLL. I am currently in the process of my build and this will be my first firearm. I am 23 years old, and have always been a very firm believer in 2A rights and formed my opinion on citizens rights to bear arms in my very young formative years (I think it had to do with the fact that history was one of my favorite subjects in school). I am the first one in my family to be a gun owner in many generations and I am not close to anybody that is gun owner on a personal level. I have done quite a bit of research on legal & safety issues but still have a few questions.
1. When transporting your OLL to the range, does the rifle have to be in a locked case and does a gun lock have to be in-place?
2. Does ammunition have to be transported in a separate section of the vehicle. i.e. rifle in the trunk , ammo in the passenger compartment.
3. Do you carry any paperwork in your gun case with you such as a copy of your DROS. My dealer handed me a 10 page packet of legal documents such memos from the DOJ and legality of OLL that I placed in one of the pockets of the gun case, I am planning on printing out the flow chart, laminating it, and placing it in the case also. Do you have recomendations of maybe specific penal code I carry also.
4. I have been to a gun range once to go shooting with my Dads friend, but is there a guide to range etiquette and safety I could read somewhere.
5. Is there a good video tutorial somewhere regarding the operation of an AR-15. Items of interest to me include how to properly load a magazine, how to clear the chamber of a live round, how to leave the action open (I know some ranges require a cease fire and the chamber be clear with the action left open.
Sorry for the "noobness" but along with my firm belief in 2A rights comes my number one concern which is safety. Also if I were to be pulled over on my way to the range I would like to be prepared for any issues that may arise if the LEO were to try and hassle me. I learned a lot about my firearm by putting my lower together and am still waiting on my upper but want to soak up more knowledge.
Thank you calguns members
