As long as the gun is registered in your name legally and you have a concealed gun permit then yes it's legal to carry your gun in your vehicle across state lines.

Never tell a police officer you have a concealed weapon in your vehicle if you do get stopped because there's nothing to gain by doing so and it could end up getting you in a bad situation or even dead.

A cop does not need to know that you have a concealed weapon if they do not see it or have any other reason to search the vehicle.

As long as you have the gun concealed in your vehicle out of sight then you should have no problems taking the gun across state lines as long as it's registered legally and you're licensed to carry the gun.
