Rules for Transporting Collection across State Lines

I am looking in the future to move from the Peoples Republic of CA to the free state of Arizona. I have a large collection of firearms I will be taking with me. All are legal in both states. These are all my personal firearms, not being transported for anyone else or for commercial reasons. Normally I would not worry about this, but due to the large number of firearms I am a little concerned about going through the Border Patrol Checkpoint. I do not wish to send them from FFL to FFL as the cost would be exorbitant, I don't want to risk loss, theft or damage in shipping (many irreplaceable) and I don't trust anyone. I am not talking about any NFA weapons, I know you have to file with ATF before transporting those between states. So anyone aware of any Federal or State Laws I need to be aware of? Thanks, Mark
