Are We Allowed to have a gun in an RV for protection?
Is it legal to carry a firearm in an RV. I am not paranoid, but I like to be prepared.

Not exactly. The Firearms Owners' Protection Act of 1986 grants safe passage through restrictive states, if the traveler is only making short stops for food and gas.

It's reported (NRA) that New Jersey may treat FOPA as an affirmative defense. A LEO can arrest you and confiscate weapons while you appear in court so that a judge can determine if you met the FOPA requirements.
Maryland is also very strict in enforcing it's gun laws.
It is unlawful for any person without a permit to wear or carry a handgun, openly or concealed, upon or about his person. It is also unlawful for any person to knowingly transport a handgun in any vehicle traveling on public roads, highways, waterways or airways, or upon roads or parking lots generally used by the public.
