It starts out saying "In areas administered by the National Park Service, an individual can possess a firearm if that individual is not otherwise prohibited by law from possessing the firearm and if the possession of the firearm complies with the laws of the state where the park area is located." 54 U.S.C. 104906.
Then goes on to say "Unless expressly authorized, Federal law prohibits the possession of a firearm or other dangerous weapon in National Park Service facilities. These buildings include, but are not limited to, government offices, visitor centers, ranger stations, fee collection buildings, and maintenance facilities." 18 U.S.C. 930.
So if someone were to visit Fort McHenry or any similar "national park" a carry permit isn't much good. So unless you want to wander through some national park forest or comb some national park beaches looking for seashells leave your guns at home?
