Read the section, Brickeyee; incidental to hunting or other lawful purposes allows a lot of latitude
You can try and pretend you are under the "lawful purpose" cloud, but that is not what it has ever been interpreted as.

It covers government agents carrying out their jobs, like the Postal Inspectors on Post Office property, or bringin a a long gun into a post office to mail it.

It is not going to extend to any lawful purpose you want it to.

Legislative intent will be used to determine what "lawful activity" the law was intended to cover, not whatever you try to dream up.

Congress's intent sets the boundaries.

The Congressional record is there for you to look at, along with the courts.
