Cheshire Man Challenges Ban On Carrying Guns Into U.S. Post Offices

CHESHIRE, CT — A Cheshire resident has filed a federal lawsuit that looks to challenge the law that bans carrying a firearm into U.S. post offices for self-defense, according to the Connecticut Post.

The Post reports that as part of the lawsuit, David Nastri is seeking a judgement that declares the federal ban on guns for self-defense in post offices as “unconstitutional.”

He is also seeking a nationwide preliminary injunction that bars U.S. postal officials and federal officials from enforcing the current law, according to the Post.

Nastri previously filed a federal lawsuit that challenged Connecticut’s ban on guns in state parks. A federal judge dismissed the case, but Nastri is appealing the decision.
