Credit Union "No Weapons"

This is on the front door of the Kelly Federal Credit Union in Tyler, TX. No gun buster or 30.06 signs, just a simple "No Weapons". Since it is a federal credit union, I guess they don't have to comply with the state law.

There isn't a state law that states they have to post a valid 30.06 sign. BTW, I don't think the term "Federal" has any legal meaning when it applies to premises of the credit union being federal property.

:iagree: So carry on past the sign - or better yet, go to a CU that doesn't try to infringe on your rights of self defense

It doesn't apply to CHL but don't carry a knife past the sign or you might be violating 30.05 trespass.

very true, but so I guess i need to leave my keys and pens outside as if necessary, those are good weapons to use, if you have nothing else.

Banks are chartered as state or federal. As someone said already, it is a matter of who they report to.

actually its not a matter of who they report to, its a matter of who owns the property, a federal association bank is still owned by a private corperation and there fore private property and subject to texas law. since the federal reserve bank is not a government division but a PRIVATE corperation, hmmmm yea yea the FED does what they want just like the USPS
