From another thread:
Recently I was CC in OceanMart Deli because I wanted to know what the fallout would be before I OCd there again.
As I recall, the sign said something like "No firearms on Post Office property", but where is their 'property'? If they're just renting a corner of the little store, is just the space they're renting 'their property'? If so, does 'their property' extend into the deli at all, or is it just within the actual walls of the PO section?
Personally, I think it was better before the sign was put up; now it just raises a ton of questions. Personally, I think I should be able to stand inside the little store, at the PO window, and still be legal, but I wouldn't want to argue that point in front of a federal judge who might have a different opinion.

I had a conversation with the [Kirkwood] USPS Clerk and she didn't even know of the restriction.Thanks, Ken ... I've been OCing in that store and at that PO with no problems in the past (but, I'm standing inside the store, of course) .... I'll try to let you know if I get arrested the next time I go there.
