Secure storage at CU-Boulder sporting events

If I cannot carry there, I don't need to be there other than federal property, or work (subject to federal laws).

OK. Thanks for your insightful comments on the topic.

If I were to expound on my contribution... I would say that leaving my weapon anywhere that is not under my control is a no-no for me.

- What kind of "attendant" is hired to "attend" to these "secure" storage lockers?
- Would they be legally allowed to own a firearm in the eyes of our government?
- Is this person over 21?
- Citizen?
- Felon?

- Many storage lockers that I have seen at venues, schools, etc are nothing more than a box of sheet metal "secured" with a cheap lock.

Same rules apply for every where I go. I know where all my firearms are what state they are in, and if they are not under my direct control then they are locked up in a manner that will not allow anyone I would not want to get unattended access to them.

This pretty much sums up my opinion on the idea of the storage lockers.

If I can't carry to where I am headed, I leave it at home in the safe.

I don't trust people to not break into my vehicle.
I don't trust people to not break into my house.
I sure as hell won't trust some minimum wage earning monkey to not break into a poorly made storage locker, and wander off with something that I am responsible for.

Yes- Those are very legitimate and valid concerns. If you do use the service, making the weapon unidentifiable in a small backpack or non-descriptive bag might be the best route.

And I even go further along those lines, to believing that carrying your concealed weapon in a bag is still not under your control. A bag can too easily be snatched from you, and there goes your pistol with it.

I don't know... maybe I go too far, but I believe that if I am not doing absolutely everything I can to keep a tool that in the hands of someone who I do not approve of having possession of said tool, I am not performing my due care and due diligence as a responsible firearm owner. But if folks are comfortable with the provided services then go for it. I just would not personally use the services of these storage lockers for anything that I would not to part with.

I am assuming this attendant has a master key as well? Just saying.
