Thank you one and all for your responses. Does anyone know if the gun laws that pertain to your home also apply to your motorhome? If someone is in my coach who is uninvited and seems unwilling to leave I've seen enough Dirty Harry movies to know a Smith & Wesson may help things along.
But do you have the same protections as a private home?
In some states yes, in some no. It is called a Castle Doctrine and not all states treat your RV as a home. Some states treat it as a home when hooked up and parked, but most all states consider it a vehicle when it is on the road.
They have a good book that covers what you can and cannot do as you travle to different states. This book is updated yearly. Traveler's Guide
Also if you plan to travel with a gun why not go ahead and take the CC class? My KS permit allows me to carry in most states. Having completed the course you'll have all your questions answered from the source instead of a "guesser". Lastly, be done with the gun talk on this forum it is not allowed.
