There are no restrictions in transportation of your property from state to state (especially AZ). They should be unloaded and securely locked in your choice of container. As long as you are not breaking some law (speeding, etc) they have no right to stop you. No matter what they say, the police cannot search your vehicle unless they believe a violation has occurred. If they ask to search your vehicle then they have no reason to search. Do not agree to any search. 18 USC sect.926A, also known as the Firearm Owners Protection Act allows transportation of those evil black weapons and high capacity magazines through states that prohibit such things as long as you are passing through and do not stop (except for gas, meals etc.). Print a copy of the law and have it with you. Sometimes the "lawman" doesn't know the exemptions. That should not be an issue with your collection. I probably
said more than necessary but better to have more info than less. Congrats on you moving to a "Free" state. I'm doing the same to Idaho next year. Oregon is becoming more stupid each day.
