I think Cafe Racer has a reason to be afraid of having guns in their store after the shooting a couple of years ago.I would think it would be a reason to encourage more guns in their business. Maybe even have employees open carrying.

Sharp Shooting has to be incorrect, I have watched people open carry into the building ever few minutes to purchase time on the indoor range. As well as to purchase accessories.
Flaming Joes is a bar, and has 3 location in Spokane area. And the owner, Sally Guthrie, is currently out on $150k bond related to drug charges. I don't know whether she is guilty or not, but it doesn't look good for her. I don't think I would be wanting to carry there even if it were legal to carry in a bar based on the potential entourage.

I think Cafe Racer has a reason to be afraid of having guns in their store after the shooting a couple of years ago.My wife, son and I were under lockdown at UW Women's Health (just down the road from Cafe Racer) after that shooting. In a waiting room at the end of a deadend hallway. My son was afraid until he asked if I was carrying my pistol. When I said yes, he knew that we, at least, were safe. I discretely took a protected position that gave me full view of the elevators and stairway door, where an armed invader would be exposed should he enter that hallway. It's too bad that the woman he carjacked and murdered was not able to defend herself. Gun-free zones are another name for victim zones.

almost all hospitals are posted no firearms. :twocents: Costco has a no firearms policy but no signage. There are quite a few companies that i have heard about that no firearm policies but no signage. I get the general impression that they are more concerned about liability than anything and its a CYA move. You could OC into a costco and someone would ask you to leave. Since there is NO signage they have to ask you to leave and you refuse in order to get into trouble.
and possibly employee policy
common to have employee policy that may differ from how Patrons are treated.
I don't know Costco's position, but I see that in other businesses.

Erik Scott was a West Point graduate who went on to serve honorably in the Army, get his MBA from Duke and establish a lucrative career in real estate and as a sales rep for a medical device company. He was 38 years old when he was gunned down in 2010 in the portico of a Las Vegas area Costco store by officers from the Las Vegas Metro Police Department. While it was 7 bullets from the only people we’re supposed to trust with guns that snuffed out Erik Scott’s life, what really killed him was an irrational fear of firearms – hoplophobia.
Scott and his girlfriend had been shopping in the Costco, but had been asked to leave when an employee spotted Scott’s lawfully carried handgun. Scott had inadvertently exposed the gun when he squatted down to inspect some merchandise. He informed the employee that he was legally carrying the gun and was in possession of a valid Nevada concealed weapons permit, but was informed that Costco has a policy against carrying firearms in their stores.

" Personal Firearms/Guns In Costco Stores
Costco Wholesale is a membership-only warehouse club. It is not open to the general public. It restricts membership to a limited group of qualified individuals who agree to membership conditions. We have the right and the obligation to our members, to enact and enforce membership rules. The Member Service Employees at the exit doors are obliged to follow these rules. By obtaining a Costco membership card, our members agree to comply with the Membership Rules and the Privileges and Conditions of membership.
Costco does not believe that it is necessary for firearms to be brought into its warehouse stores, except in the case of authorized law enforcement officers. For the protection of all our members and employees, we feel this is a reasonable and prudent precaution to ensure a pleasant shopping experience and safe workplace. Our policy is meant to protect our members and employees in all warehouses around the world. This is not a new policy and we do not customize the policy for each individual city/county/state/country where we do business.
Our primary goal at Costco Wholesale is to keep our members happy. If you believe that our policy restricting members from bringing firearms into our warehouse stores is either unfair or excessively burdensome, or you cannot agree to abide by this policy, or you are dissatisfied for any other reason, Costco will promptly refund your annual membership fee in full." http://mashbang.wordpress.com/2012/12/02/costcos-hidden-no-firearm-policy/ (http://mashbang.wordpress.com/2012/12/02/costcos-hidden-no-firearm-policy/)

This is not entirely correct. BWW also has a restaurant portion, which is not covered by the state law ban.

It does seem weird. Maybe they want to leave the concealed carriers alone and just deal with the guns open to view when there's a complaint. :dunno:

Go to the Costco website
Select “Customer Service” in the upper right corner
Select “Costco Member Questions & Comments”
Select “Warehouse, Business Centers or Membership”
In the pop-up window:
1 – Select “Other” in the dropdown menu
2 – Type in “firearms” in the text box
3 – enter an email address (any address will work it can be a fake one)
Select “Next”
Select the link “Personal Firearms/Guns in Costco Stores“
You are supposed to end up at the link below with the policy.

If a bar owner says don't bring it in here because that is the law, I'm cool with that. If I find out the bar owner is supporting a campaign to end carry or standard cap magazines or AR rifles, I'll work against that bar---they have now identified as part of the enemy.

With respect to the issue of open-carry and concealed-carry of firearms by customers – it is Cabela’s general policy to allow customers to carry a pistol or revolver within Cabela’s stores if the customer is permitted to do so in accordance with applicable law; provided such firearm remains safely holstered while the customer is on Cabela’s property, and the activities of the customer do not raise safety concerns or otherwise interfere with Cabela’s business activities.
If a customer brings a firearm on Cabela’s property for purposes of repair, appraisal, evaluation, sale or any other purpose that will require the customer or someone else to handle the firearm or remove the firearm from a holster, the firearm must be checked in with store personnel, safely unloaded and fitted with a trigger lock.
Cabela’s supports responsible gun ownership and is committed to providing a safe family shopping environment. Accordingly, Cabela’s reserves the right to implement firearm safety procedures within its stores as Cabela’s deems appropriate.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

That may be the policy but i can tell you that everytime i have gone to Seahawks Stadium, i have been armed. The right firearm paired with right holster and you can get past almost any security checkpoint. Think S&W bodyguard in a Smartcarry holster. Belt on. Metal detecor goes off, show them your belt buckle and buttons on a pair of Levi 501s. They think its that metal setting off the detector.

I OC any the time the weather does not demand a coat, and have contributed to this list. Criminal carry (CC) does not advance our 2A position, OC does.
Anyway, I have seen comments on Costco: The real answer is, Costco corporate policy is that if a local manager wishes to ban firearms, it may. One big surprise I found is, CSWW (AKA BigR in WA, ID and MT) bans OC unless you are LE. They will allow CC, but I still do not shop there, and told them so. One thing everyone needs to do is let these businesses KNOW that we will not patronize them BECAUSE of their firearms policy.

Why does everyone jump on buffalo wild wings it is a bar and last I checked state law prohibits carrying in a bar, cafe-racer is also a bar so it would be a crime to carry there rendering there policies against it moot.
@biggfish: Is the the entirety of the Buffalo Wild Wings establishment off limits to those under 21 years of age? (I'm not familiar with Cafe-Racer.) Washington state law only prohibits firearms in that portion of an establishment that is off limits to those under 21 by classification of the State Liquor Control Board. RCW 9.41.300 (1)(a).
A couple years ago, I went to McGrath's Fish House in Vancouver. There was a sign that stated that firearms were prohibited in the restaurant pursuant to state law. I asked to talk to the manager, showed him the sign and explained to him that his prohibition of firearms from the entire restaurant pursuant to "state law" was an erroneous reading of state law. He disagreed. He was also very dismissive and arrogant.
So I sent an e-mail to their corporate office. (I didn't tell the manager that I'm a lawyer.) I received an email from someone in operations (I think it was the VP) apologizing and assuring me that the restaurant is pro Second Amendment. The sign was quickly changed to accurately reflect that firearms are prohibited only in the bar.

So how many of you are boycotting cabelas they have a corporate policy that only law enforcement can carry everyone else has to relinquish their open carry weapons.Cabelas has a sign on the door that states Conceal Carry is Exceptable, I'll take a picture of it next trip there. Gun that are brought in to sell,or any other reason then conceal carry needs to be taken to the gun stand right by the entry doors.

I think it's time to surrender something else at Cabelas - my Cabelas Club Visa. I can't believe they don't allow legal open carry.
Huh? Look above at reply #58, the letter from Cabelas. It looks to me like it is fine in WA, since it is legal here. I can think of other reasons to surrender mine (like i use it way too much), but this isn't one of them. :)

Costco statement.
Personal Firearms/Guns in Costco Stores
Costco Wholesale is a membership-only warehouse club. It is not open to the general public. It restricts membership to a limited group of qualified individuals who agree to membership conditions. We have the right and the obligation to our members, to enact and enforce membership rules. The Member Service Employees at the exit doors are obliged to follow these rules. By obtaining a Costco membership card, our members agree to comply with the Membership Rules and the Privileges and Conditions of membership.
Costco does not believe that it is necessary for firearms to be brought into its warehouse stores, except in the case of authorized law enforcement officers. For the protection of all our members and employees, we feel this is a reasonable and prudent precaution to ensure a pleasant shopping experience and safe workplace. Our policy is meant to protect our members and employees in all warehouses around the world. This is not a new policy and we do not customize the policy for each individual city/county/state/country where we do business.
Our primary goal at Costco Wholesale is to keep our members happy. If you believe that our policy restricting members from bringing firearms into our warehouse stores is either unfair or excessively burdensome, or you cannot agree to abide by this policy, or you are dissatisfied for any other reason, Costco will promptly refund your annual membership fee in full.

Just last week I was headed into Costco in Spokane and the person in front of me when he reached for his card showed a holster. The folks at the door informed him about their policy even tho it's not posted outside in any form of signage. He was turned around at the door.
Good thing I carry my wallet on my off side or I also wouldn't have gotten in.

Has anyone verified the Sharp Shooting indoor range policy?
Almost every person in that store has either open carry or concealed carry including owners and employees. The owner is very outspoken about standing up for 2nd amendment rights including testifying in Olympia. There is something that doesn't smell right on this one. they are an indoor shooting range where you can rent firearms to try your hand at accuracy or demo certain models that you may be interested in.
