Loaded Long Gun while traveling

[some old grunt]

Here looking for a yes or no. And maybe a link if you feel generous.
I'm a nonresident traveling to Alabama. I intend to bring a shotgun and a carbine. I am having trouble finding the law there regarding traveling with long guns loaded.

Is it legal to transport long guns "loaded"?

Technically cruiser ready (empty chamber, loaded mag tube, or magazine inserted).

Where I'm from, it is legal.

I have a concealed carry license in my home state.

Thanks in advance.

Legally speaking it makes absolutely no difference whether the guns are loaded or not.

Legally speaking it makes absolutely no difference whether the guns are loaded or not.

The exception being when inside certain WMAs. The game wardens can get pretty aggressive when they find a loaded, uncased long gun and they'll charge you with "road hunting".

You can’t cross state lines with them if you are going to sell or trade them.

You can’t cross state lines with any firearm to sell or trade them, that’s a federal law but it is not illegal to cross into other states with long guns. People travel to other states to hunt but there might be a law in some states or cities about having a long gun loaded and out of a locked case or compartment.

what state is your CCL in? or just do a quick google check to see if your home state has a reciprocal agreement with Alabama.
