I visit Staples MN often, and have a MN CCW. As I was reading through the Staples City ordinances, I came across this mysterious ordinance:
So the real question here is, can a city override your CCW?
I've also made note of several landlords in the area banning their tenants from having firearms, which I believe from reading 624.714 of the stat statutes, is against Minnesota State law as well.
Does anyone have any good information on what to do? Whenever I travel there I simply opt to open carry the biggest scariest revolver I own, but I would like to know what the real legal breakdown of this is. Thank you.
