We travel to shooting competitions as competitive shoots. We don't carry ammo to these shoots because it is provided by the host club. Bit, I also carry a firearm for my protection. I do everything I can to comply with the laws of the various political subdivisions that I traverse.
That is important. What is egal in one state may be different from another state, and we need to think about that. Another thing to think about is the firearm we carry to protect ourselves. If everything goes sideways and we have to use the firearm, the police are apt to take it as evidence.
So, the question we need to consider is what firearm the police may take as evidence. When I left for Kentucky las week, I considered that question. So, I did not take my preferred revolver. Instead, I took a reasonably inexpensive polymer framed semi. If the police are going to take something as evidence, they are not going to take my nice revolver. I shoot the semi well enough at halitosis distances.
So, think about it when you travel. Which firearm are you not adverse to having stored in an evidence locker?
When traveling, be safe, be carful, and comply with local laws. And, don't take a gun that you cannot easily replace.

That's why I travel with a Glock. Not worried about losing it. At home, it's either a .45 or a .38.
Consider modern made Taurus revolvers. Their quality is IMO on par with modern S&W and their price point is comparable to many budget semi autos.
