From what I am reading it sounds like the intent of the federal law would be met if I kept both the unloaded gun and the ammo locked in a box in the rear of the van with our luggage.

I'd be traveling from CT (resident permit) to PA (non-resident permit) and back again this coming spring. I'd only be passing through NY and/or NJ for at most 2 hours so I believe that meets the intent of the federal law as far as transiting through.

Sound reasonable?
