Nanuk .....Its called LEOSA. I can carry it wherever. Try taking a SBR on a road trip legally.
I do....regularly & legally. No ATF permission slip needed. And I'm not covered under LEOSA either.

Your special status under LEOSA is misleading as to the legality and complexity of traveling the US with firearms.

No need to be a smart alec.
You think I was being a smartaleck for pointing out the fallacy of your claim? Note that you never mentioned about being able to carry under LEOSA and since you have I'll point out that you may not be aware that carrying under LEOSA doesn't allow you to carry "wherever".
LEOSA doesn't grant you the same concealed carry rights as does a CHL/LTC/CCW issued by a state. For example, restrictions imposed by a business (like a "No Guns" sign) or even in state government buildings here in Texas..........'cause if you aren't licensed in Texas, you can't carry concealed in a state government building.


Further, and maybe most importantly, LEOSA doesn't exempt you from the Federal Gun Free School Zones Act for example......you'll need PERMISSION in the form of that states firearms permit to possess a firearm when within 1,000ft of a school. Didn't know that did ya? Think about how many schools are within 1,000ft of an interstate highway, much less surface streets.

So every time you been traveling thinking you don't need anyone's permission........you've been committing felony after felony. So much for "wherever" right?

You might want to read this:http://le.nra.org/leosa/off-limit-areas.aspx
and this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_En...A_Restrictions

So in short, yeah, you can't carry "wherever".
