Logic man logic you make it hard
For the record, I thought the OP had kids there.
I reread his post, and he was only passing through.

I find it truly astonishing that Americans in other States are going along with masks and lockdowns. The only reminder of the whole thing in rural North Texas is disregarded "wear a mask" signs on some business doors. Almost no one wears masks up here - half the people up here NEVER did. No one worries about "distancing." I was concerned about this new disease last year. We quit worrying about it at all last Fall. My wife is a nurse in a large hospital and had been exposed to symptomatic co-workers and patients all summer. None of us got so much as a sniffle. I'm not worried about this disease, I'm worried about the government and the folks in lab coats profiting off all of this. You know who is showing up in the local clinics with mysterious injuries and illnesses? The vaccinated.
Former neighbor got charged with reckless driving ( class B misdemeanor )for a less than 5mph rear end collision at a stop sign. His fault. LTC suspended and charged with a Class A misdemeanor for carrying a gun while engaged in criminal activity.
He beat all charges, but spent $10k + in attorney fees to do it.
If you get “that guy” they will find a way to screw with you.

I haven't researched this myself, but here is a handy reciprocity website. https://www.usconcealedcarry.com/resources/ccw_reciprocity_map/tx-gun-laws/#recRestricted
Avoid Maryland.
Apparently, their troopers all have license plate readers. Those readers constantly report to the mothership to run plates. When they run a Texas plate and find it's a vehicle registered to an LTC holder, they consider that probable cause to make a stop and search the car for illegal guns. Bottom line - most of us would be in for a tense time if we drove into Maryland.
I won't provide cites but it's been reported enough times that I believe it.

I think this type of adversarial treatment of citizens from "red" states that travel through "blue" states is going to get worse as time goes on.
What if, what it, what if .............................That sounds like some of my former students I had in a middle school.
You do realize that the "what if" scenario happened to the OP, right?
I already corrected myself, but the OP traveled through to visit a child, that is why I asked my question.

That is some dark stuff right there. A policy diverting LEOs from looking out for actual crime in order to persecute law abiding citizens of a free State.
They do it to all of their neighboring states that have carry permits.
Accept my apology please. I've been cranky all damn day!

No worries!
I actually drove through a part of Maryland and did not get stopped. The peninsula on the eastern side of Chesapeake Bay was quite a long drive through and is part of three states. Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia. It's also flat very fertile farmland. I saw hundreds of thousands of acres of corn, soybeans, peas, wheat, and some other vegetables I could not identify. They also have some pretty nice beaches in Delaware.
