Default Interesting take on airports and CCWs
Saw this today...didn't see it noted anywhere else on the forum.

In many US airports, guns are OK outside security - Yahoo! News

Orange County prohibits carry at John Wayne Airport via county municipal code. Otherwise, it would be okay to carry there as well. I'm sure there are a lot of other cities/counties out there that have done the same thing. Always check your local codes to be safe.

John Wayne Airport: OC Muni Code 2-1-53 (i)
OC Muni Code 2-1-11 (a) defines "airport" as John Wayne Airport.

Quote:
Sec. 2-1-53. Rules of conduct.

(i) No person, except peace officers, an authorized post office or Airport employee or a member of the armed forces of the United States on official duty, shall carry any weapon, explosive or flammable material on or about his person, openly or concealed, on the Airport without the written permission of the Airport Director. This Section shall not apply to persons carrying firearms in cases, broken down or unloaded when said firearms are being transported by air. For the purposes of this section, a weapon includes all those listed in California Penal Code Sections 12000-12654.
Quote:
Sec. 2-1-11. General definitions.

(a) Airport shall mean the John Wayne Airport, Orange County, California.

I don't fly often, but when I do and my firearm is legal at both ends I do declare and put it in checked baggage.

In Pittsburgh, Anchorage and Reno I re-armed in the non-secure area as soon as I had my baggage back and did so in a discrete way. This is as it should be.

Firearms in the non-secure area of an airport are not a threat of any kind when possessed by law abiding CCW holders.
