Re: Apartment laws regarding firearm ownership
If I saw that listed anywhere, I would let the local gun support/rights know what's up.
Just like when any thing goes public and crushes idiots.

Apartment laws regarding firearm ownership
No worries brother. The article says " The housing authority's policy of prohibiting residents from openly carrying firearms in "common areas" of public housing buildings." So carrying it "concealed" in "common areas" is legal.
Also, the article was not concerning owning a gun at the apartment. They apparently did not want people openly carrying firearms in the "common areas".
Also, you are in Fl, one of the most gun friendly states in the US, not sure why a case in Delaware is relevant. Like the Jackfrost said, Just ask. You are in one of the most gun friendly states in the US, odds are you are fine.

Re: Apartment laws regarding firearm ownership
I hear you brother. You are good. Always check your local laws. I know in Ga, regardless if a place of business has a gun free zone sign posted, you are legally able to carry concealed handgun. If security or management asks you to leave you then have to "legally" leave. If you do not, you are "legally" just trespassing.
Of course, leave if you are asked too. Then it is no big deal. If you conceal your weapon properly, you will rarely be asked to though.
As far as in your apartment. A landlord can not restrict you from having a firearm in a property you are renting. In 2007 the Heller-vs-DC case set president by the Supreme court. DC banned handguns, Heller's lawsuit basically concluded that, the Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home.
So to answer your question more accurately, a landlord can not restrict your 2nd Amendment right to have a firearm in your home.
