I have yet to see a 30.06 sign at a entrance to a parking lot. Hopefully someone will chime in with a better understanding on what this means.3dfxMM wrote: 30.06 is not limited to the premises. It covers whatever property is posted.

30.06 sign only covers the premises, not the parking lots.Cap'n wrote:As the OP, I don't know if I learned anything new, but I do thank folks for trying to help.
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.
