I handle and regularly discharge firearms as part of my work requirements and sometimes go into the terminal. So far I haven't tested positive, although if they tested my ID card it would probably have traces all over it!

I'm interested to see what the next step is for someone like me who has entered from airside after using firearms, tests positive, and then later goes back airside. Would they initially try to stop me?
