As far as I was aware, there's no mention of firearms in OSM, but when I've just looked, I've found about 20 listings (all in the US - I'm guessing that's where you are?) for firearms=yes/no, so there's obviously at least some interest in the idea!. This will hopefully show the TagInfo https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/firearms#overview & Overpass map of them: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/ITh. > Examples of these restrictions in my area would be signs on buildings > prohibiting carrying firearms concealed and/or openly.

Could possibly be done as a node on the building itself, but also as an extra tag against the business eg https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/305658067 Good luck! Thanks Graeme
