Folks will put up both 30.06 and 30.07. If they're gonna put up one, putting up both isn't much of a stretch.
I think we are going to see more 30.06 signs for three reasons. First, there has been so much media attention. This isn't going to stop now, and 30.06 and 30.07 signs will be covered ad nauseam. While local store owners are probably aware of 30.06 signage (at least most of them), there will be pressure from anti groups, well-meaning, ignorant customers, corporate decisions, etc. Second, it will be one of those things, where if you are going to have to put one up, making your entrance look ugly, you might as well put both up. Thirdly, and I hope this doesn't happen often, but I would also not be surprised to see lots more 30.06 signs simply due to poor attempts at concealment where 30.07 is posted (i.e. full size frame in an OWB printing through a thin t-shirt - which isn't concealing anyway).

In the end however, I think it will be a big non-issue, but that will probably take a couple years for everyone to calm down.
