Does your workplace get bomb threats? Then maybe don't keep guns there.

Guy who had an office at a hospital kept a bunch of guns in his office closet. A bomb threat was called in. Bomb-sniffing canines searched the hospital. They hit on his closet. This was New Jersey,...so straight to jail, do not pass GO.

So, it was because of the type of firearm and mags, not that they were actually in the hospital.

The article reads a bit funky. One part says they were in "unsecured storage", while later it says it was in a locked office. He was the Director of Marketing, but was not an employee. Just a consultant.

The point is - bomb-sniffing dogs are also gun-sniffing dogs. No matter where you are or what you're doing, or how legal you are or aren't,...consider what would happen if some nitro-sniffing canine came poking around your space.

Not really, they're ammo/powder sniffing dogs. If you're really that paranoid, store the ammo separately from the (cleaned) guns. Problem solved!

A distinction without a difference. The only way your gun doesn't smell of nitrate residue to a dog trained to look for it is if it has never been fired or is recently cleaned. (And I know y'all have filthy guns.)
