Welcome to Speed Beez! We’re shooters who were looking for the ultimate speedloader and holster. We also carry everything you’d ever need for competitive and recreational shooting! We’re big advocates of concealed carry and feel like if you’re going to carry concealed, you need to know what you’re doing! Today we’re going to specifically talk about 7 places you can NOT carry concealed.
- Police Stations: Police stations and any office designated for law enforcement is considered a “gun free zone” for concealed carriers. You’re not allowed to transport, carry, or possess a firearm on your person.
- Jails & Prisons: Any facility designated a detention facility – whether it be a jail or holding cell or a federal or state penitentiary – is off limits for concealed carriers.
- Courthouses: Federal and state courthouses are generally off-limits for concealed carriers. While some states have toyed with allowing concealed carry for employees, citizens are generally prohibited.
- Polling Places: Any place where people gather to submit ballots for election is (in most cases) off limits to civilians with firearms.
- School Zones: Any location designated by the state as an elementary or secondary education facility may be designated a school zone. The protection of that school zone falls under federal and state jurisdiction. Exceptions may occur as provided by state law.
- Secure Areas of Airports: After the TSA security checkpoint, it is expressly forbidden to have a concealed carry handgun unless under some extremely special permission usually granted only to law enforcement or security personnel.
- Military Bases: If you want to carry your firearm onto a military base, you will have to get the base commander’s explicit permission to do so prior to attempting to enter the base.
