Are you serious about no weapons in parking lots of po This can't be seriousDidn't even know there was such a rule. None of the local POs around here are big enough to have their own parking lot. One of them doesn't even have the typical "no guns" sign posted in the building.
I think that you are OK - it is off-body concealed. Unless you are in IL or NJ.Ours is a contract p.o. No signs. I occasionally mail firearms. I wonder if that is breaking the law about concealed weapons since they are inside a hard case. Hmmm. Thought to ponder.
As a 30 year Clerk at a large Post Office I spent a lot of my time on the phone because "convenience store" POs don't have the knowledge they need or the resources to do everything correctly. Even at large POs, there are anti-gun or Clerks who don't know what they are doing. I dealt with gun collectors, tactical weapons sales, and a person who built and modified guns for one of our favorite Western actors. I've done antique double guns and cases directly from Hollywood.I use UPS for most of my shipments, but when I need to use USPS to ship something small like a holster, I have a convenience store with a small but complete post office inside. Closer, faster, better service and I can carry with no problems and get a snack.
