    Ok just to muddy the waters - I'm a FFL, I have a license to carry, I take a pistol/revolver in to be shipped? I am a private citizen and take my concealed long gun in for shipping. There is a sign on the door that reads "no guns". You quessed it - it has happened to me. The postmaster could not answer the question at one location and refused to ship in either case. The postmaster at another location laughed and shipped the weapon. Go figure!

    FedEx is your friend, Bubba is not.

    FIFY - saying someone's a FFL is like saying someone's a high school diploma.

    It's the same as carrying a firearm into an airport for shipping. A packaged, unloaded firearm is not "concealed".

    Oh? Consider the following:

    Federal Firearms Licensee

    Alternately, you could try being less pedantic. We live in a world of ATM machines that require PIN numbers, and accepting this will lower your blood pressure. :twocents:

    gov buildings and schools, and school-like buidings IE daycares, preschools, and churches with those things attached.

    :ugh: Nobody ever mentions the caveats. The daycares, pre-schools, and churches are only no-go places if the daycares and preschools are licensed under a specific IC.

    Furthermore, you can receive permission to carry from the administrator/owner/someone of authority of the school or church. Which is a good thing, or I'd have to report myself and the mister to the state. :D


    And, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but "government" is no longer a sufficient criterion to determine whether or not a building is off-limits to legal carry.

    Right... I forgot airports (duh) and RIVERBOAT casino's. Worse you can get from the Gaming Commission is a fine. Fairgrounds in not really ILLEGAL. Carry during the fair and the worst that could happen is you lose your weapon, no fine or jail time. Carrying at home or at your place of business isn't what I was referring to...those are no brainers.

    Every casino in Indiana is a riverboat casino by law. I'd look up the ic but I'm on my phone. And yes I know French lick is surrounded by land and on land but by IC it is a river boat casino. Also you can be detained by security and IGC be fined and possibly lose your LTCH.

    Yeah. Bizarre. Wish I could define words however I wanted.

    IC 4-33-2-17
    "Riverboat"
    Sec. 17. "Riverboat" means any of the following on which lawful gambling is authorized under this article:
    (1) A self-propelled excursion boat located in a county described in IC 4-33-1-1(1) or IC 4-33-1-1(2) that complies with IC 4-33-6-6(a).
    (2) A casino located in a historic hotel district.
    (3) A permanently moored craft operating from a county described in IC 4-33-1-1(1) or IC 4-33-1-1(2).

    IC 4-33-2-11.5
    "Historic hotel district"
    Sec. 11.5. "Historic hotel district" means a historic hotel district that is established under IC 36-7-11.5.


    IC 36-7-11.5-1
    Definitions
    Sec. 1. (a) As used in this chapter, "advisory board" refers to the Orange County development advisory board established by section 12 of this chapter.
    (b) As used in this chapter, "development commission" refers to the Orange County development commission established by section 3.5 of this chapter.
    (c) As used in this chapter, "historic hotel" has the meaning set forth in IC 4-33-2-11.1.
    (d) As used in this chapter, "hotel riverboat resort" refers to the historic hotels, the riverboat operated under IC 4-33-6.5, and other properties operated in conjunction with the riverboat enterprise located in Orange County.
    (e) As used in this chapter, "qualified historic hotel" refers to a historic hotel that has an atrium that includes a dome that is at least two hundred (200) feet in diameter.

    IC 4-33-2-11.1
    "Historic hotel"
    Sec. 11.1. "Historic hotel" means a structure originally built as a hotel that:
    (1) contained at least three hundred (300) sleeping rooms on or before January 1, 1930;
    (2) is listed in, or is seeking listing in, the National Register of Historic Places; and
    (3) was regionally recognized for the mineral springs located on the property that were thought to have significant health benefits for the hotel's guests.

    Holy Circular Reference, Batman! I wonder which casino this was written for (Cough.... French Lick.... cough).

    What's funny is that the Indiana Grand Casino does not seem to meet this definition (not a boat, not a permanently moored craft, and certainly not a hotel in an historic district). So, by IC and the Gaming Commission's own rules, it is not illegal to carry there.

    :laugh:

    The funny thing is that my wife made a similar comment about pedantry to me this evening after I complained about something incredibly trivial. I think we're both headed for hypertension!
