Got wanded at the Hampton Beach Casino

[Joe G]

Went to see a show last Friday (8/1) night. They were wanding everybody who came in the door. I set it off with my cell phone and a money clip in separate pockets. Each time they made me pull out the offending item and then they re-wanded my pockets to make sure there was nothing else.

If I had been carrying IWB and pulled out my cellphone, the pistol would have still have set the wand off. I don't know what their policy is upon discovering a legal CW.

I guess, being from MA, if you didn't have a Valid NH carry permit...you would have been in some trouble.

sorry, just had to say it...

Either they let you in...or ask you to leave and come back without it. If you hadn't paid yet I'd recommend just leaving. If you bought your tickets sell them to someone waiting in line for face value or a little under.

Nothing online about whether or not firearms are prohibited, so I'd certainly make that point if they tried to disarm me before going in.

Whoa... some good groups on the schedule coming up! Beach Boys, Pat Benatar, Gretchen Wilson... damn, wish I could go to that one. But I'll be at the Appleseed Shoot in CT the day Gretchen is playing.

I have a NH non-res CCW, so that wouldn't have been an issue. Given the lack of firearms prohibitions that Ross found, I wonder what the bouncer would have said if they noticed I was carrying.

Do they wand to the ankle?

Just thinking out loud here.

I wonder what the bouncer would have said if they noticed I was carrying.

Perhaps "This is private property and I am denying you entry."

Perhaps "This is private property and I am denying you entry."

I imagine that's about as far as it would have went.

I was wearing shorts. Wouldn't have helped me. But I didn't see them going low on other people.
