I will tell you that a company's firearms policy cannot dictate
the manner in which you will be treated by the legal system.
Walmart does not permit customers to carry a concealed firearm,
however a customer that carries a pistol and keeps it concealed
will not be found out.

Moreover, a company cannot have you arrested for the criminal
use/misuse of the firearm if it is concealed and you are acting
within the statutory guidelines of your state. However, the
company could pursue a civil complaint against you for some
perceived damage to the company through your negligence.
However, if you don't draw the weapon, fire the weapon, display
the weapon, threaten to use the weapon, then their complaint
won't have any actual damages to attach.

Nevertheless, we are talking about "law" and with all
politically charged issues, guns bring out emotions rather than
calm logic and there is a possibility a law abiding citizen
with a concealed permit/license could lose a civil suit, but
most likely a criminal suit would not hold up.
