Thank you kindly. Ive always thought it would be nice to know if the place Im going is CCW friendly or if they have pat downs & metal detectors.

Thinks... Is the Zoo CCW friendly? Surely if I call them they are going to freak out...*

Well you are welcome to OC or CC at any of the PIT STOP SMOKE SHOPS, they are located in Valparaiso (rt 30 by the Viking Chili Bowl), Merrillville (at the corner of US 30 and 55) and St John (on US41 across from Walgreens).

Be warned, you may end up in a long conversation with the store owner about your gun (if he is in the store). And if you are carrying anything other than a 1911 you will get a good ration of grief!!!

But if you want some excellent cigars from the high end Sol Cubano Artisians to mid-priced brands like Ghurka, Macanudo or Partagas, to the low priced machine made cigars, the Pit Stop stores are gun friendly.

Another gun friendly place is the HOT DOG CART located in downtown Crown Point on Courthouse Square. There are 2 carts, the gun friendly cart is located on the Northwest Corner of the square.

The owner of the cart does gun shows on the weekends and his wife, also a LTCH holder, who usually runs the cart sales, can probably out draw and outshoot most tactical officers! There were about a half dozen of us out there last week eating hot dogs, carrying guns and generally having a nice lunch talking about the merits of DuraCoat, Colt ARs, etc.

Might want to be careful about kid-friendly places like the zoo and IMA... doesn't the code include places that are used as a "school function" ?

Pami

(IANAL)

There have been MANY discussions just about this subject. Although the law is not real clear there seems to be a difference between a facility that a school uses for a function (e.g. renting a room for a sports banquet) vs. a school visiting a "public" facility.


BTW the Indianapolis Zoo is a “private” organization:

The Indianapolis Zoological Society is a private 501(c)3 organization governed by a Board of Trustees.”

Conseco says no guns allowed in the entrance. They have you open up your jacket, but if you can conceal your gun half way decent, then you wont have a problem
