It’s important to know where you can and can’t carry your firearm. Keeping up with the law can be a bit of a chore. Here is one good website to stay on top of it.
It is illegal to possesses a firearm or other dangerous weapon in a Federal facility. However, there are exceptions for:
Authorized officers, agents, & employees of the United States, a State, or political subdivisions;
Authorized federal officials or a members of the Armed Forces; and
The lawful carrying of firearms or other dangerous weapons in a Federal facility incident to hunting or other lawful purposes.
The term “Federal facility” means a building or part thereof owned or leased by the Federal Government, where Federal employees are regularly present for the purpose of performing their official duties.
The term “dangerous weapon” means a weapon, device, instrument, material, or substance, animate or inanimate, that is used for, or is readily capable of, causing death or serious bodily injury, except that such term does not include a pocket knife with a blade of less than 2 1/2 inches in length.
