Traveling from Florida to Connecticut by vehicle?

I will be traveling from FL to CT by vehicle (95 north) by myself I posses both a valid Connecticut pistol and revolver permit and a Non-resident Florida Concealed Weapon or Firearm license. I will carry my Glock 23 and my Ruger LCP. I know do to the reciprocity agreement between Florida and the other states in my travel I’ll be fine in these states (GA, SC, NC, VA, DE, and PA.) What I am worried about is the states that don’t recipritatee i.e NJ MD and NY. I know by federal law that it’s legal for me to have them in my vehicle as long as the pistols are locked in a case unloaded and the ammo is in a separated storage container, should I be worried if I’m stopped by an LEO in a non-reciprocity state?
The vehicle is a small SUV, so I have a problem.
Im saying they will be in a lock box, then Ill be completely fine, right?

Anyone help me? C&R FFL application?

I want to get a C&R license and its my first time applying, I came across a few problems while filling out the form. I when to the local PD for help but they said they’ve never seen a form like that before. They also didn’t know who the Chief LEO is.

So I’m hoping someone here can help me?

One question 10: Non-immigrant alien certification of compliance with USC 18… etc,
I’m a US citizen, do I need to fill out any part of #10 A, B, or C? Because on C it asks "are you in possession of a valid hunting license of permit lawfully issued in the US?" followed by "if you answered NO, you likely cannot lawfully possess a firearm and therefore cannot be a federal firearms licensee". I don’t have a valid license right now, and I’d rather not have to spend alot of money to get one in order to get a C&R. does Question 10 apply tome at all?

List #14, requires me to make a copy to local Chief LEO or Sheriff, does that mean city CLEO or county CLEO? If I drop by the county courthouse and go to the county sheriff’s dept can I get help there? is that the CLEO I give my copy to?

List #15, "title": what does that mean?

and finally to apply for a C&R license, is this the only form I fill out?

-thanks

Why Can't Veterans Carry Weapons?

"Under the “Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act” (HR-218) qualified active and retired law enforcement officers are permitted to carry concealed handguns nationwide. The law amends the Gun Control Act (18 U.S.C. Chapter 44) to exempt qualified active and retired law enforcement officers from state and local laws prohibiting the carry of concealed firearms."

Plain and simple, why doesn’t this apply to military veterans? I’m a veteran of the US Army, and a military police officer for that matter. However, I live in Illinois, one of then most unfriendly states to law-abiding gun owners in the entire union.

I’m just not sure why someone would believe that a former military officer, trained in some of the most advanced tactics in the world, wouldn’t make a great civilian ally to any LEO who happens to find themselves in trouble. I’m not saying it happens very often, but wouldn’t you feel a bit safer knowing that a veteran with a gun was sitting next to you on the CTA? Especially in Chicago, which has a ban on handguns all together.

Obama keeps talking about a civilian defense force, let’s start with qualified veterans being given Federal Concealed Carry Licenses, just like retired LEOs.
