I don't see anything in the act that would include post offices or any other federal building.C-dub wrote:Whoa! Does this include Post Offices? Federal property open to the public sounds like it would. I'm also excited about the ACOE stuff.Charles L. Cotton wrote:It authorizes anyone coming within the scope of the Act to carry concealed handguns on all federal property that is open to the public, as well as state property managed by the Army Corp. of Engineers (a list is provided).
ETA: As far as I can tell this is the complete list of federal property that is covered by the Act:
I wonder why they use the term "unit" for NPS and NWRS, as opposed to "land" for all the others but I am betting "unit" does not include buildigns.“(2) A person possessing or carrying a concealed handgun in a State under subsection (a) may do so in any of the following areas in the State that are open to the public:
“(A) A unit of the National Park System.
“(B) A unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System.
“(C) Public land under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management.
“(D) Land administered and managed by the Army Corps of Engineers.
“(E) Land administered and managed by the Bureau of Reclamation.
“(F) Land administered and managed by the Forest Service.”.
On the plus side, GFSZ act doesn't apply to anyone carrying under the Reciprocity Act. Assuming the Senate passes as is.
