There is a federal law, if I remember correctly, that allows you to carry like you did through a state as long as you are legal at point A and point B and as long as neither point was in the state where it is illegal and you only made convience stops. Such as fuel, food, and restroom stops, no sleepovers, go straight through. Concealment isn't a problem because if the vehicle has a trunk it should be in there. In a van or a pickup it should be as far away from any occupants as possible. I'm not too sure about a motorcycle.
Sec. 926A. Interstate transportation of firearms
Notwithstanding any other provision of any law or any rule or regulation of a State or any political subdivision thereof, any person who is not otherwise prohibited by this chapter from transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm shall be entitled to transport a firearm for any lawful purpose from any place where he may lawfully possess and carry such firearm to any other place where he may lawfully possess and carry such firearm if, during such transportation the firearm is unloaded, and neither the firearm nor any ammunition being transported is readily accessible or is directly accessible from the passenger compartment of such transporting vehiclerovided, That in the case of a vehicle without a compartment separate from the driver's compartment the firearm or ammunition shall be contained in a locked container other than the glove compartment or console.
Thanks for all the infomation about traveling through Illinois with a firearm. I have never read so many laws in my life. I felt like i was in Russia. I did meet some nice people, and they told me some horror stories about the state highway patrol. I don't understand how this is happening in the U.S. Good luck
