That's a typical 30.06 sign
I disagree

Sign says
" concealed handgun licensee licensed under Chapter 411 (which does not address rifles) may not carry a concealed handgun..."
a rifle long gun is not a handgun
As I stated there's no license required to carry a rifle

30.06 doesn't address rifles
Chapter 411 doesn't address rifles

The 30.06 sign is not addressed to rifle carriers, whether licensed to carry umbrellas/handguns/drive cars/ or not

You may not carry a concealed rifle anywhere FIREARMS are prohibited by law
There is NO LAW regarding concealed longarms/concealed rifle licenses... there are laws regarding Places FIREARMS are prohibited
a Rifle is a FIREARM
A rifle is not a handgun

(My sincere apologies to OP for the thread hijack, just showing why a sub2000 RIFLE in a briefcase/laptop case is useful to have at 30.06 posted doctor's office where you must leave HANDGUNS outside )

Glock 26 ... I'm in Central TX, I plan to be in Houston (Pasadena) around Xmas it that's still around then ...we'll see :) I carry twin 26s now

Easily fits in a computer bag and the top of a tackle box too.

But is it really legal to carry this past a 30.06 sign?

Simple Logical Answer ... What does a 30.06 sign forbid?
Forbids a CHL (Handgun Licensee, licensed under chapter 411 ...) from carrying his HANDGUN past that sign
A) this is not a handgun,
B) There is NO license required at all to carry a LONGARM/Rifle anyway,
C) 30.06 does not apply to longarms
D) 30.06 does not apply to any guns carried NOT under license of chapter 411...
E) Chapter 411 does not apply to longarms, only handguns
HOWEVER YOU CANNOT CARRY ANY FIREARM where FIREARMS ARE PROHIBITED

But where Licensed Handgun carriers are prohibited by a 30.06 sign, unless otherwise prohibited, (see above RE: Firearms) a 30.06 sign never applied to longarms

AK47 RIFLE / LONGARM in a guitar case (Or open carried if dumb enough to open carry it past a 30.06 sign>>> asking for trouble ) is not a handgun being carried under my Concealed handgun license/license to (open) carry a handgun...

I'm not a lawyer, but you have to make an AK or AR or a hunting rifle or a Carbine into a handgun for 30.06 to apply (I'm not addressing Firearms in general or other parts of Penal code, just the question asked)

sub2000 is easier briefcase than an AK in a guitar case ... just a matter of convenience if I have to leave the Glocks in the car for car thieves, I don't want to get back to the car with my Glocks in their hands and nothing in mine..

Good price for a briefcase sized carbine for those clinics/doctors offices that post 30.06 where I have to leave my Glock "handguns" in the car
