Default Area Malls

Anyone know if the area malls are CC friendly? I was specifically thinking of the Oxford Valley Mall, the Franklin Mills Mall, and the King of Prussia Mall. Any intel appreciated...thanks in advance.

concealed means concealed.

It's entirely legal to carry in a mall in PA.
If security notices you are carrying and asks you to leave, you must do as they ask. If you do not, it is criminal trespass.


That being said, concealed means concealed.
Don't show don't tell.

Default Re: Area Malls

Most, if not all malls in this area will have signs on the doors that say "no weapons allowed." I almost never go to any mall for that reason. That being said, concealed means concealed. Out of sight, out of mind. I would much rather take my chances of being spotted CC by security than take my chances of being an unarmed victim in a mall shooting spree. Happy ( CC ) shopping!!

I have cc'ed in both Oxford Valley Mall and Franklin Mills Mall with no problem.
As far as signs go, I usually enter at one of the "anchor" stores instead of a general mall entrance and have not seen a sign. I am not saying they don't have them, just that I know that all the stores do not. I have even oc'ed in Pennys at Franklin Mills with no problem.

LOL, I *know* concealed means concealed, just trying to see what the official policy is.

Thanks for the info!

Every?. No, not true.

But there seems to be very, very few that do not have no weapons policies.

And ya gotta wonder how much of that is due to the fact that seems to be a "monopoly" where 1 company owns a "dozen or more" malls....wonder if we could find a completely self owned mall and see if they have the policy as well...

Nope. Most do, but not all. Though I rarely go to the shithole mall here in my town, I've OC'd there a few times, including passing right by multiple security personnel with no issues.
