here's what the sign says:

Possessing a firearm or other dangerous weapon in a federal facility for other than official purposes, causing such a weapon to be present, or attempting to do so are punishable by a fine, imprisonment for up to 1 year, or both.

If the prohibited weapn is intended to be used to commit a crime, the penalty is an increased fine, imprisonment or up to 5 years, or both.

Title 18 US CODE section 930


No person on US Postal Service Property may carry or store firearms, explosives or other dangerous or deadly weapons, either openly or concealed, except for official purposes.
