I work for a large Co. that has never posted 30.06 signs but has a strict no gun policy. Simple, if they find a weapon during a search you are getting fired.

It may be a coincident but 30.06 signs showed up today along with "no unauthorized guns allowed" signs. I went to the weapons policy and found that in response to SB321 I must be "authorized". to be authorized I must have a CHL (I do) and fill out a declaration. This declaration requires my name, phone, work location, car license plate #, Make and serial number of gun and number of bullets.

I don't have a problem letting my employer know that I have a CHL and I may or may not have a firearm in my car. It seams to me that wanting the model, serial number,and number of bullets is just over the top. I shoot rifles, pistols and shotguns at the range and i feel that to be compliant I would have to give them an inventory of all my guns along with serial numbers. What if I said 8 bullets and had a box of shells? what if I get a new gun and it not on big brothers list? I know that when I submit the declaration to the home office they will notify local management, but don't know who or how many people that may be or if any of them know what the word discretion means. Would they get the list of all my guns?

Am I looking at this the wrong way or are they trying to make it too difficult. I looks like it would be a lot easier to keep parking on the street when i am packing but then I might as well post a "I have a gun in this car" sign when I go in the building. It also means they get what they want regardless of the law.

Any opinions out there?
