Njsarge 11 Posted August 12, 2017 Planning a trip to independence hall, liberty bell and the mint. Can I carry my off duty at these attractions? Don't want to get turned away with the family there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRIZ 3,369 Posted August 12, 2017 If youre carrying on a permit, no. If you're carrying under LEOSA, active duty or retired, no. If you're a Federal LEO it should be no problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRIZ 3,369 Posted August 12, 2017 LEOSA doesn't let you carry in Federal buildings. If you're on official business different rules apply. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
High Exposure 5,662 Posted August 12, 2017 From a buddy that is a municipal PA cop: "You're good under LEOSA for Independence Hall and the Bell. You just need to declare and a DCNR Ranger may come verify status. Not sure on Mint. It was closed when we went last year. It's Federal so who knows." 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobA 1,235 Posted August 12, 2017 Just curious. I would have thought you'd have better resources than here to get the answer. If that's the case then please let us know what it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redwings9 5 Posted August 12, 2017 As others have indicated you are good for those listed as good to go. Mint is a big no go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ff312 5 Posted August 13, 2017 I have carried at the liberty bell, just let them know at the check point and have your work is ready. No problems at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njsarge 11 Posted August 31, 2017 Rangers would not let me in. They do not allow corrections officers to carry in the park. Ridiculous!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
