no gun on apartment lease?

[f44life]

well ill just hope i dont have to defend myself in this apt complex... but like said before i signed so i must comply....they dont need to know

My closest family member is in iraq or nw ohio....so yeah

I can't see how an apartment complex rule can supercede state or federal law. I certainly wouldn't worry about it, but as you said I wouldn't flaunt it either. Maybe you could have the package shipped to a friends home and avoid any issue.

Also, the OP said Kahr wouldn't ship to a PO Box... There are places like Mail Boxes, Etc. that "work" like PO Boxes, but they give you a physical street address with your name on it. Anyone shipping to that address would have no way of knowing what type of address it is.

There are easy ways around this "shipping problem", but it sounds like the OP might just be too cheap to pay for a PO Box or similar type service.

After thinking about f44life's post think about this, in my early days most folks were young, very young in my apartment complex. The good side of this is there will be a minimum number of kids handling guns with the possibility of an AD and the bullet going through three or four walls before stopping. F44life still has his protection, and is in less danger from untrained kids.
I would still keep and carry in spite of the lease, what is the worst that can happen? Maybe have to move!

thats my attitude on the matter...

[O'Dell]

If it were me, I would continue to live there if I liked the apartments, keep the gun, and arrange for an alternate delivery address. They have every right to prohibit guns since it's their property, and they put it in the lease, but I think the worst that would happen if they found out, would be to ask you to move.

[f44life]

they wont find out ill be sure of it

Crap like this happens in Tennessee, I never would have thought. The patron state of shooting stuff and common sense and this happens.
I'm bummed.

The area where he lives is not the place where I grew up anymore. It's also not as safe any more either which is why you need protection. I stayed at my grandmothers house growing up very near there and now it's not as safe as it used to be. Too many feel good liberals have moved to the Nashville area and have changed things since I left 30 years ago. I think they even elected a mayor from New York or somewhere like that. They all probably showed up when Al Gore was VP.

Oh well. enough of that from me.

[OldLincoln]

What O'Dell said! You like the place so stay, just get your parts from a shop and keep the rest to yourself (like you should anyway). That really means don't tell anybody as they may get drunk or pissed or whatever and say something without meaning to.

well if you know anything about nashville...i was living right off harding place in an apt...now im in antioch which is a whole lot better place to live then i was.

[Pender1]

If they ask tell them they make very rigid belts and that's what you ordered, make up some reason you needed it.

I know that area well. Grandmother lived in the square between Thompson Lane, Nolensville Rd., McCall St., and I-24. That area is not the same place it was before. You need that PM9. But if it's anywhere close to work that's where to be. Traffic there is crazy now too.

[sharpetop]

Personally, after reading such BS in the lease I would have ripped it up before signing and told them why. Since you have already signed the lease, concealed is concealed. I'm just sayin'.

[BroncoAZ]

There is no way I would have agreed to giving up my 2A rights for some apartment. Depending on the penalty (misdemeanor or felony) in TN a criminal trespass for CCW on that property could end up costing you your rights.
