I can see you did not fully understand my question so here it is again...can the association LEGALLY supercede the rights given to me by the state?
No they cannot legally supersede the privilege give to you by the state. However, they can have a no weapons policy for their volunteers performing the "duties" of the organization. It is the same if your employer has a policy against firearms in the workplace even thou they are not 30.06 posted. They cannot arrest you, but they can fire you. Most stores for example allow CHL carry by customers but have a no weapon policy for their employees. The neighborhood security watch has a no weapons policy. If you fail to comply, you can be "fired". They also have a "watch and report" only policy. So if you saw a crime in progress and tried to stop it, with or without a weapon, you will be "fired". Their club, their rules. Don't like them, don't join.
