I have several questions regarding interstate transport of shotguns/rifles. My father who lives in Maryland would like to pass on to me a Remington 1100 as well as some old 12 Ga side by sides and a Lever action Savage .250. I am licensed to carry class A in Massachusetts. Is there any problem transporting these guns from Maryland to Mass via Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island? These guns will be unloaded, cased and locked.

I recall hearing that federal law allows transport from one state to another provided the person transporting is legal in the start and end states. I just don't want to be a statistic. Thanks.
