They said to dismantle the main parts as far as possible and remove batteries.Thats what they basically told me ALSO
If I had a detector going into a National Park now I would detach the coil, separate the shafts and remove batteries. Never hurts to advise the ranger you have a detector dismantled in the car and have no intention of using it in the park, that you are on vacation and using it legally in some of the National forests when it is allowed. Never hurts to be upfront with the rangers. They thanked me for being honest and assured me I would not get in trouble if I left it in my SUV which I was driving.
