    Default Emperor's palace and guns?

    Hi guys I did search but found nothing. Im attending a Boxing match this evening at the casino. Whats the policy on guns. Safe keeping?
    I called and the operator says don't worry just give the gun to security, since this is never going to happen I wanted to see who else had been there before and what the facilities are like. Perhaps I hand in my primary only :-)

    I was there a number of years ago and they had lockup facilities.

    They have proper lock up facilities you will see the signs to the gun safes when you get there. I was there this time last year.

    Yip, last I was there it is by the main entrance (the one with the fountains and stuff facing the highway), it is biometric so you will register your digit first, then go into the room with the lockers.

    As far as I know, casinos are formally designated and gazetted firearm free zones (someone please correct me if I'm wrong).

    If this is the case and you are caught with a firearm in your posession it's not just "I'm sorry Sir, we are going to have to escort you off of the premises", but could result in a criminal charge and possibly even the revocation of your licences. Whilst it is probably possible to slip a BUG through, I don't think it's worth the risk. Their lock-up facilities are fine and are properly managed.

    YES, ^^^^^ This

    I have carried to boxing 2 weeks ago.

    Only firearms check is when you enter the gambling area, all others are open.

    That is what i was going to ask.

    Although it is a gun free zone, as long as you dont go onto the casino floor you are fine to carry and go sit at the resturants etc?
