National Wildlife Refuges are currently similar to National Parks, in that there is a CFR law that prohibit firearms within these lands. There is a hunting exception to this. When hunting is open, firearms are allowed but only for this purpose (so no self defense carry while fishing for example). So while you would not be guilty of 12025, you would be guilty of 50 CFR 27.42 (see second post in this thread for link and details). However, the good news is, like with the National Parks, HR 627 will remove the firearms prohibition effective February 22, 2010.
