My concern was whether I had any additional legal obligations beyond locking my car (with EDC gun) when having to enter a 30.06 area, e.g., hospital, post office, polling station, etc. The 30.06 places we can't avoid. Don't think I've ever taken my discretionary $ to a business posted as 30.06.
My proposed workaround -- lacking any other options in a small car -- was to clear the pistol, leave the pistol concealed in the locked car (but not in a locked box ... no room for a concealed lock box), and carry the mag & ammo with me. The last step was in the unlikely event my pistol was stolen, the empty pistol couldn't immediately be used to harm anyone.
What? I drive into a hospital parking lot, walk up to the door and there is a 30-06. Are you saying that I am illegal before passing that 30-06? In my thinking the parking lot entrance would need a valid 30-06 posted to keep me out.
