Are you sure that you were in a federal and not a state building?It has been several years since this took place so I don't know if it has changed. But, the last time I had to go to the JFK building it didn't even dawn on me that it was a Federal building and I was carrying.
There was a Statie sitting at a desk just to the left of the metal detectors. I explained my situation to him and He said that was no problem. The drawers in his desk all had lock boxes in them. It was obviously set up for this specific function. He simply locked up my piece in one of them and gave me a receipt for it.
I went upstairs, completed my business and picked up my Glock on the way out. Easy peasy.

Are you talking about the Moakley federal courthouse? I go in there frequently for business and assure you walking into the building while carrying would make for a certifiably BadDay.Can I carry? I think there is metal detectors at the entrance.
thanks
I don't think the question should be can I carry in a federal building.I should be how far can I get?
Not unless you have federal LEO status.
Not with sworn LEO status he didn't.Didn't Omar Mateen WORK for Homeland Security ?
So he could carry there.
