As we know, the media always gets details right. Especially about laws and guns.
It's probably this charge which requires that you enter the bank with intent to rob it. |

I OC at my bank (TD) at least once a week during the summer.
No issues. |

When I worked for a smaller bank I had a few customers come in carrying. Even at a larger national bank I had a customer OC (and it wasn't subtle) and nobody gave him any issues. Can't even remember if that bank was posted no firearms, but it basically comes down to who is inside running the business.

Yeah, not illegal to carry in a bank when just going about your business.
Some idiots think that the FDIC sign in the window makes it a federal facility.... but hey,. like I said, they're idiots. |

Banks are fine, but don't carry in the Post Office, or any other federal facility.

NAVYFCU is a no go... Think you're right. I believe I saw that sign plus one that say no hoodies/hats/sunglasses or something. Does that sound right? It was at the main branch in Vienna. |

That is correct! Plus no cellphone use in line... They don't want you taking pictures of other people's information. |

Wells Fargo has a no firearms policy. Unfortunately it does not apply to criminals. Several local branches have been robbed because of it. They should fight fire with fire. I carry concealed all the time. No one knows I have a firearm.

If I have to use it, it's for a life and death situation and I'll deal with a good lawyer later if necessary. |

The amount of customers that would be frightened by OC up in say McLean or Great Falls, is an actual worry for them though. Can't see any reason to prohibit concealed though. Wells Fargo is also a pain in the ass to get an NFA trust notarized. I had to speak to my branch manager and eventually ended up complaining to the regional director.

I don't necessarily mean banks - it could be a restaurant or grocery store or Costco - I'm not going to see the sign and then turn around and leave my gun in my car just because I see a stupid sign telling me I can't defend myself. That's all I meant. I would assume most of us are in that same boat. I although fuck Toby's Keiths. I won't go there on principle, regardless of that fucking sign. |

FWIW- My local BB&T branch has always cheerfully notarized any of my "gun" related documents. They only peruse the document for what they need to for the notary, smile and don't say a word about my private business. |

Had my Gun Trust notarized at the General District courthouse. Many clerks are also a notary. I am surprised a bank would be so skiddish on that. What should they care?

I am about to apply for my permit and was wondering were i can and cannot carry. I was just looking at the vcdl website and came accross this.
http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+18.2-308.01 So a bank would be private property? |

Wells Fargo? They must have changed, then. I remember when they took over Wachovia, all the gunbuster signs came down. I have OC'd in there on many occasions, including getting gun stuff notarized. Haven't been in one in a while, thought.

The incident with the notary was in Falls Church, so really the belly of the liberal beast... The regional guy was apologetic. |
