"The staff at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, South Carolina, however, is beseeching family members of newly graduated Marines — be the one, too — to not bring guns on base.
In a May 17 Facebook post, MRCD Parris Island indicated that, since the May 7 reopening of boot camp graduations to the public, there has been an uptick in families attempting to bring guns onto the premises.
“As a federal installation, no personal firearms are authorized aboard the base and those families must take measures to store their firearms prior to entering the base or they will be turned away,” Capt. Bryan McDonnell told Marine Corps Times in a written statement."

I can't imagine being such a scared, weak human being that you can't even visit a base full of Marines without thinking you're in danger and may need to shoot someone.

MAJ Byron Oyler - Make artraingements to store it. When I travel with my RV, and go on a military base, I am fully prepeared to take my personal firearms to the base security (MP) station and leave it with them.

CPT Christopher Stanco - You are NOT free to do as you wish on a US military base.

My comment does not imply you are free to do what you want on a mil base.
Your comment implies that all CC holders are scared and looking to “shoot” some one.
I never stated do not abide by the law- I agree with the restriction; your comments are what I take point on.

Re-read my comment. I agree with the restriction but calling CC Holders “Weak, scared human beings” who want to “shoot someone” is ignorant.
Follow the laws and “Carry” on, it’s your right!

Time to open a designated gun bank, where you can deposit your gun and receive a card that unlocks the vault that your gun is stored. when entering the base you stop there first and when you leave the base you can go there and using the card unlock the vault and retrieve your weapon. This would be located just before entering the gate to the base.
