Do they have a "no firearms" rule? Or is there any other reason why I shouldn't be able to OC at the Udvar-Hazy center?

Specifically I am considering going to the IMAX theater.

I gooled it. I do not think it is advisable to open carry or conceal carry.

Why not?

1. U.S. Govt museum.

2. Federal property.

3. It is an annex of theNational Air and Space Museum.

There is no "law" against it AFAIK. At most, the directory of the Smithsonian can create whatever "law" he wants at the Smithsonian. Banning firearms is one and doing so is a felony.

If you bring a gun to the center you will be arrested, taken to a D.C. jail, and processed through the D.C. Court ofGeneral Sessions.

Search is your friend, folks.
And the solution is, everyone needs to start writing Webb about this issue because that is the only way it will change. Our other senator doesn't care so don't waste your ink.
