- What are the magazine capacity limits in each state?
- Can I legally carry a firearm in state and national parks?
- Are firearms allowed in restaurants that serve alcohol?
- What are the laws regarding carrying firearms in roadside rest areas?

Many gun owners have expressed concern that differing state laws make it difficult to legally carry their firearms when traveling for business, vacation, or visiting family.
The interactive map seeks to eliminate that uncertainty by offering a simple way to check and understand the regulations in any state.
