Why even take the risk that they would substitute a brand spanking new 30.06 sign for the old gunbuster's sign? With all due respect, I think you took an unnecessary risk. If the sign is not compliant, walk right past it and don't educate them that it isn't compliant. And it really isn't necessary nor is it any of their business for the security guards to know if you have a CHL or if you are packing. The better path would have been to ignore the signs and walk right past them.Vecco wrote:I have been with USAA since 1986; I only use them for car insurance and some investment. Their banking, loans and CC have always been sub par to Navy Federal where I do my banking and loans from. I called USAA about 3 months ago to change my home owners Insurance only to find they wanted about $349 a year more then what I was already paying. I really wanted to reward my children who will be off to college next year with their own USAA membership ( they already got them automatically) but I think I will shop around for other car insurance and defiantly a better investment company ( they have always been sub par, IMO). I need to write a letter to let them know.
PS: Navy Federal has the gun buster sign, I wrote them and they said they don’t like guns in there office, Randolph Brooks credit union who I also use, flat out told me CHL is ok. The security guards ask if I would give him a nod when I walk just so he knows, I can do that.
The bank where my personal accounts are—Viewpoint Bank—has a gunbusters sign. I ignore it. Although the former branch vice resident who lured me to that bank (and no longer works there) knew me personally and knew about my CHL, the current folks don't know, and I'm not about to educate them about either my CHL, or their silly sign. The bank where my business accounts are—Bank of the West's new building in Grapevine—has a completely different flavor. When I set up the accounts, I made my wife a signatory to them, and we both had to provide two photo IDs. We each only have one other photo ID in our wallets besides a TDL and that is a CHL, so we showed them to the bank president who was setting up my accounts, and I said that I hoped it didn't freak her out. She laughed and said, "Heck no, honey! Everybody should have one of those!" There are no gunbusters signs or any other kind of signs on the doors, and there isn't a security guard in sight, but you get the sense when you walk in the door that you have stepped directly into well-appointed bank vault.
As far as insurance goes, I wouldn't give my business to a company that has a compliant 30.06 sign out front, and I'm not about to educate them if their signs aren't compliant.
