As in illegal. You can not have/transport/whatever any weapon on or through Fort Bragg. I used the word "frown" but ment otherwise. Yes I have a pass and ID to enter base. However still liable to random search at MP's whim. Even if personal weapon is locked in trunk, not allowed.

There was a series of articles in the local paper a few years ago. People who live in Fayetteville, and belong to a gun club in Spring Lake. TO get from one to the other, the most direct route is through Ft Bragg. Well guess what. You are not allowed to carry. If Stopped by MP's, Federal crime. Soon, (Approx 2014) this route from Fayetteville to Spring Lake will be closed. Even the alternate route now under construction goes through part of Fort Bragg.

This is the source of my comment in the thread on Emergency Kits. IF the balloon goes up, and I am at work, yes I have food, water, blankets. As I try to get home, I would not have anything more dangerous than the spare tire iron I carry in the trunk.

BTW, this ASSUMES that I can get off of Fort Bragg. During 9/11, no one on or off of Fort Bragg. THank God, the wife was not working that day and I was at another job.
