No loaded weapons.

No carry in State owned buildings. That includes the Fair ground buildings.

You can carry on the grounds. Not in any of the buildings. Pretty ridiculous but it's the law. Maybe someday, no "gun safe zones".

No carry in State owned buildings. That includes the Fair ground buildings.

The buildings are not state owned, they are owned by the city of OKC through a trust.

Is carry restricted in city owned buildings?

Here's a link to the SDA, the discussion here is whether these buildings are specifically for "conducting business with the public". Couple that with the statements in part B section 4 and the discussion gets more interesting.

I should have known that.

I don't know about the buildings, but the gun show promoters generally don't allow loaded firearms, presumably for safety reasons. Or maybe for other reasons:

Not everybody who walks into a gun show is risking missing a call from NASA's employment office, after all.

Unload it before you try to take it into the show?
