After extensive research, I have the right answer for Choctaw Nation owned property, including all their casinos. For the Choctaw Casinos, the right answer can be found at the following link in chapter 53 of the Choctaw Nation criminal code. The laws pretty much mirror Oklahoma state law. All posted buildings are off limits for carry. (remember in oklahoma any and all signs count) Parking lots are excluded and may not be posted. There is even civil remedies for any government or business entity that tries.

Back to the original question. The Chickasaw Nation has been less than cooperative on providing any written answers. Email correspondance and phone calls have only yielded their zero tolerance policy. I suspect that getting caught on their property with a concealed handgun anywhere could in a wide range of actions depending on who you deal with and their attitude. Remember they are a sovereign nation and without their own written code, they could fall back on federal law, state law, or just make stuff up. Any court actions would begin in their court system with the appeal process thru the federal court system.

My best advice when going to winstar is leave your gun at home. If not you are taking a risk with a wide range of potential outcomes. If you enjoy the casino amenities, take your business to Choctaw.

As a footnote for your Texas MPA friends, there is NO MPA in Oklahoma. Get caught with a loaded handgun in you vehicle without a valid permit, we honor all state issued permits, you will be cited, fined, and your gun confiscated never to return.
Thanks for your advice.
