The Alabama law allows transporting of firearms from a state where a person is legally allowed to carry to another state without any type of permit, as long as he satisfies the following:

● The firearm is in a separate compartment of the vehicle and is not accessible for the driver.
● The firearm is locked in a container and is away from ordinary observation if the vehicle has no separate compartment.
