So I am done with California. Born and raised here...just turned 40. I have decided the improvement in my family's quality of life by moving to the suburbs of Dallas is too good to pass up. Fortunately I can keep my current job and income too.
The oppressive firearm laws here do not have anything to do with my decision, though it is a bonus to be leaving them behind as well. (My dad who lives in FL couldn't find any local dealers who would ship a .30-06 to CA for instance)
In addition to the usual items, I will be transporting:
1) multiple hand guns
2) a rifle and shotgun
3) several thousand rounds of ammunition (.22, 9mm, and 45ACP)
6) Reloading supplies like gunpowder and primers
I have not yet decided if I am using a moving company, or containers that I pack, but either way, most of my belongings will be out of my possession for a large amount of time.
I am going to be driving my vehicle, but with a wife, 2 kids, 2 cats and a dog, just the bare essentials are going to take up a lot of room. Adding these items would be inconvenient, plus we will be spending at least one night on the way and traveling through CA, AZ, NM, and TX.
What are peoples suggestions and are their any laws I need to be aware, especially crossing several state lines? Can a 3rd party transport these items? What safety precautions should I be taking?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and time.
