Informing a sign posting business that their sign is invalid is a BAD idea, because that might prompt them to correct the sign.

1. They haven't kept up with the changing sign requirements
2. They never really knew the sign requirements, some corporate pencil pusher just sent them a sign and told them to put it up.
3...... And this is the big one......
Maybe they know the sign is non-compliant and they like it that way... Why? So that CHL's can carry and their anti-gun customers are none the wiser. The anti's see a sign and think "awesome", never really knowing it's non-compliant. And the CHL's see a non-compliant sign and think "awesome". Win-Win.
Since I have started carrying, I've noticed many non-compliant signs and smile a little as I walk by them. It is possible that they are aware that they are unenforceable (I even saw a sign this weekend that said something along the lines of "Possession of a Firearm by any licensed or un-licensed person will result in a $10,000 fine") and chose to make their anti-gun customers feel all warm and fuzzy.
