In NC, you are required to inform any LEO who stops you that you have a weapon and that you have a license. From there, follow his instructions. Since gun ownership and hunting are very big in the area I Summer in, there has never been a problem and the LEOs are like talking to your cousin from the country.
Within reason, you probably don't need to be paranoid about printing BUT really try not to let the weapon be seen. I travel the states you mentioned all the time and have never had a problem. I never stop in bars while travelling.
Only place in Va. where you may encounter an anti gun attitude , that I have come to mind, would be the DC area. I was a PO there and my son is in Fairfax Va, presently. The general political enviornment can be problematic should a situation arise.
