Question for LEO's
Lets say that I was carrying a shotgun in my car.
Are shells in a side saddle considered "firing position" or is that legal unloaded storage as a long gun?
And no, I'm not talking about carrying a shotgun in the car all of the time, more of a theroretical question

Hope that helps. When I transport I have a locked ammo box, and a locked gun case.

while you are home, you can be as loaded and and concealed as you want to.
also, in your place of work, if the owner allows it, you can CCW also.
the only exception is if either is within 1000' of a school.
