Finding information on possible penalties for drug distribution?

I am having a difficult time finding some exact information on drug trafficking laws in my state. I deal specifically with Xanax, and at any time I will have up to 2,000 pills in my home or on rare occasions on my person (only when going to sell them). Can anyone point me in the right direction for possible penalties for specific states for distribution for Schedule IV drugs (Xanax in particular)? For opsec reasons I will not be disclosing which state I live in. I would also like to know about the possible increase in penalty if I own a gun. I legally own a 9mm pistol that is registered in my name. If I were to get busted, would having a legal gun in my home increase my penalty? It may seem counterproductive, but I never carry my pistol with me when meeting my buyer IRL. I only sell to 2 different people in large amounts, and do not fear a situation that a pistol would be needed... If it were to occur then I am just considering that a risk of doing business that I am willing to take. I only have the gun in my home for self defense, and I own a conceal carry permit and carry it with me sometimes when I travel, but only when I don't have any drugs on my person. I am curious if I were to ever get busted with a large amount of Xanax in my car or my home, if I would face additional charges or mandatory minimums for also possessing a legal firearm. Does anybody know a good place to look for this information for federal and specific state level charges? Thanks guys.

It is a felony to be in possession of drugs while armed with a firearm. A registered firearm can still trigger this enhanced drug charge as long as you are caught unlawfully possessing a controlled substance.

if you goina continue, get rid of the gun

Dont keep drugs in your house if LE wants to find your drugs your home address is the first place theyll get a search warrant for and then youre fucked. Also get rid of the gun even if it's legal having a gun will multiply your sentence if youre caught. The best person to answer your question is a criminal defense lawyer. Get one that's experienced in drug cases. Best of luck

Whatever you do, be sure to keep posting specifics on Reddit outlining everything about your operation.

Alprazolam is a misdemeanor in the US....I got caught with a gram of pure alp and got charged with felony cocaine posession (LMAO) and when the lab results came back it was alprazolam and I just had to pay a fine for the misdemeanor...should have tried to get it dropped altogether but didn't want to push it.
