I live in St. Louis, have a MO CC license and memberships in several ranges, two of which are in Illinois. One is a short drive across the bridge, the other is about an hour into the state. The two ranges in Illinois are both indoor, and with the way weather can get here in the Winter they're both places I'd rather shoot than outdoors in the woods in St. Charles County or the Missouri River bottom lands.
In MO I can drive around with loaded weapons (as long as they're out of sight). When we go to shoot in Illinois, we put the unloaded weapons in the trunk and the ammo and loaded magazines in a range bag in the cab of the car with us.
Is this the right way to do it? Are we transporting legally in Illinois? I'd hate to have a few grand worth of firearms confiscated.
