As always GFSZA applies to unlicensed carriers.

The Capitol would only be off limits if they post 30.06/7 when they are meeting, and presumably only the legislative chambers. My understanding is they don't post.

There will still be places off limits by statute to carry a handgun for non-LTC holders that are not off limits to LTC holders unless there is a 30.06/7 sign, namely:

Hospitals
Amusement Parks
Government meetings subject to Open Meetings Act

What about gun free school zones?

I actually thought about saying other than gun free school zones... but I didn't think about the statutorily prohibited places which are still required to post signs.

Good points.
