The Ocala mall may prohibit "Firearms or other weapons of any kind", but the state of Florida does not enforce that or similar signage. At most, mall management may explicitly direct you to leave if somehow they detect that you have a concealed weapon, but that is then enforcement of a "no trespass".

You will notice that they can not and do not guarantee your safety while on their property, so their lack of customers in their malls may be in some part a direct response to their policy. No amount of alcohol-based hand sanitizer can help that.
