Anyone here seen a 30.06 posted garage?

If so, where/name of business?
Several businesses in the metro area have their employee parking lots posted with 30.06. We had them when I worked at Raytheon in Garland. We all know these signs don't apply to employees, but there are a lot of non-employees who use these lots - repair men, delivery men, wives and kids coming for a visit, employees from other companies, job applicants, etc.

Where I believe the argument on being able to bypass the 30.06 sign with a gun in your car is that 30.06 does not apply to MPA and you would not be carrying under the authority of your CHL until you exit your car. 30.05 would still apply to you for criminal trespass, even in your vehicle, if the location was posted with a general no trespass sign or you refused to leave when requested since your CHL would not be applicable to carrying at that time, MPA would.
So this begs an interesting question - is there any sign that carries legal weight that would prevent an individual from carrying under the MPA? (And I mean one that's specific to firearms, not a general no trespassing sign.) For example, suppose I own several acres in rural Texas and my house sits well off the road such that my driveway is a few hundred yards long. Is there any sign I could post at the entrance to the driveway to prohibit someone from having a gun in their car as they drive up to my house?
