Same question with a different spin. In Maryland you have the right way they want you to transport your gun to and from a range. So you go shooting. After shooting you then unload and have your gun back into it's secure holster/case. And if you want you can go as far as the out of reach thing and or in the different compartment like the trunk of your car.
Can you stop on the way home with the friend you went shooting with and have dinner and one beer? Or do you have to go straight home from the range and do not pass GO?
Go home. Go home directly. Otherwise, you are just opening yourself up to a question of fact for a jury to decide as well as the prosecutor's discretion. If he has a bad day, you go to trial. Face it guys, when you are transporting a handgun or even a firearm of any kind in MD, a different set of rules apply and what you normally do, you can't do. MD is not AZ or WY.
