Been going to Maverick store #411 (5153 S Adams Avenue, Washington Terrace 801-475-5177) since it opened--about a year. Always OCed in the store, had quite a few conversations with the employees about OC and what they themselves carry. Lots of Weber County Sheriffs hang out there and I have spoken with them often with absolutely no problems.
Last week, I was stopped by a Weber County sheriff who insisted OCing loaded with permit was against the law. I carry a pamphlet that cites UCA 76-10-523 (amongst other codes [http://le.utah.gov/~code/TITLE76/htm/76_10_052300.htm]) which states permit holders are exempt from UCA 76-10-505 (http://le.utah.gov/~code/TITLE76/htm/76_10_050500.htm). After being detained for questioning and threatened with a citation, the sheriff finally let me leave without incident.
Today, I went into Maverick again to fill my car up with fuel. I was promptly followed out by the store manager who has informed me that Maverick Corp says they don't allow the carrying of firearms on their property because there have been customer complaints. Has anyone heard this before? I've contacted Corp and left a message with the Customer Service Rep for Northern Utah (Customer Service 1-800-789-4455) and am hoping for a call back soon. I'm just curious why all of the sudden I'm having problems carrying at Maverick when I've never had an incident before. If this has been Maverick's policy all this time, why isn't anyone informed on it?
