True this.....but when you get somewhere and want to walk with the Rifle (back to the house for instance) a new law just went into effect:
BEGINNING JANUARY 1, 2013 Long guns must be transported in a completely enclosing case
when not in a vehicle; if the case is designed as a gun case, no lock required. If the case is NOT designed as a gun case, must also be locked.
*So a zippered cloth gun case would work but it has to be completely zippered shut.
If carrying in a non-gun case, then you must have it locked before walking around with it. No open carry of rifles is the 'word'.
