The whole point of reciprocity is that other states recognize your CHL as being valid within their borders.

Grace & Peace, Jim
Take a look at the link I posted in my previous post.
I travel to other states frequently and ALWAYS have my weapon on me when traveling. With the CHL and the states you are going to, you should be fine carrying concealed in the car or on your body. Just be sure to note where it is and isn't legal to carry (churches, restaurants that serve alcohol, etc.) in each state as they will differ state to state. Additionally, some states have laws on carrying only one gun, etc. Just follow the laws for each. Use http://www.handgunlaw.us" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; as a good reference for each states rules.
