2026 Traveler’s Guide to the Firearm Laws of the Fifty States

Newly updated for 2026, the 30th edition of the “Traveler’s Guide to the Firearm Laws of the Fifty States” is a must-have resource for those who travel often and therefore must navigate the patchwork maze of laws imposed in various localities.

Written by attorney J. Scott Kappas, the 68-page booklet includes more than 100 changes from the previous edition, answering—in plain English—such questions as whether you can carry your firearms inside your vehicle, in a church or in a state park, what the local policies are for places serving alcohol, whether an obligation to inform exists, whether the state has reciprocity with yours, and much more.

The suggested retail price is $17. For more information, visit gunlawguide.com.
