Alpine Inn, Omaha
SemperFiGuy:
Omaha Municode 20-151 applies. Any unregistered handgun is illegal the instant that it crosses into the Omaha city limits. No grace period whatsoever. None. Unregistered handgun gets snatched (unless owner has applicable NE or reciprocal state CCW permit).
Happened coupla years ago to a Nebraska citizen traveling into Omaha from mid-state to see his brother. LEO took gun from trunk, wrote citation, which provides for confiscation and up to 6mos jail time and/or $500 fine. Guy had a S&W .357Mag revolver, probably a Model 19. Gone. Never did read any more about it in the paper. My guess is the visitor paid a fine and lost the gun. And now carries a misdemeanor firearms violation, which prevents him from obtaining a Nebraska concealed carry permit.
NE or reciprocal-state CCW avoids all that mess.

Yes, I do have my KS CCL. I have done quite a bit of research on the laws about concealed carry, I just didn't' know about the Alpine Inn.
Nebraska just has so many more laws (than KS) on where one can carry, I just want to make sure I stay within them.
SemperFiGuy:
One more thing. Even if the Alpine Inn isn't posted NO CCW at the door, if their liquor sales exceed their other revenues, it would be illegal to carry inside the premises.
Welcome, Dear Neighbor, to Nebraska.

Thank you. That is how I understand it, but how is one supposed to know? I was just wondering if anyone had any first hand knowlege of it. Thanks for the warm welcome and responses.

Well, you've touched on a source of puzzlement to the concealed carriers in Nebraska.
Maybe there's a kindofa joke where this Concealed Carry Guy goes into a bar and sez, "C'n I see your books..... No, the financial books. Not the balance sheet. Only the income statement..........."
Our Forum discussions have sorta centered around the idea that if the bar also has a Great Big Restaurant (food revenue), then we're OK. If only a dingy little bar (some Forum members think this one's the best kind) and no grill, then better back slowly out the way we came in.
So far as this Forum's aware, there's not yet been a case of this type adjudicated. At least, so much as we know. We argue that a Good? Lawyer could maybe get us off the hook on this one, because it's so vague.
But none of us want to be the test case. And probably, neither do you.
FWIW, all the Can't Carry places in Nebraska are listed here: http://www.sos.ne.gov/rules-and-regs/regsearch/Rules/State_Patrol/Title-272/Chapter-21.pdf See SECTION 018, specifically 018.01M.
