This is exactly why we let gunbusters and similar signs alone. They do not pertain to us. If you're caught carrying, don't tell them "well you have the wrong sign up" because that will keep other law-abiding folks from carrying in there.

So you would rather give a business that does not respect you your money?

I've had to take customers to Hooters for business lunches.
I'd prefer that Hooters not make a habit of posting valid 30.06 signs, even if they prefer that CHL's not carry inside.
Without valid notice, I carry. With valid notice "I left something in the car, meet you inside."

Hey Glock_Tacular... Please do us all a favor and go back to Ohio, vote RED and then come back to TX.

Welcome to the forum.!!

From what I've read of your description of events, the restaurant manager did a reasonable job taking you aside and talking to you about the inadequately concealed gun. You might not have liked all the details, but, at least he didn't just call the police or make a big scene. Honestly, if my concealment is failing, and somebody discretely points it out, I'd first be grateful, then apologetic. Regardless of exactly what words are said, I'd realize that a lecture from the business owner is much easier to deal with than a ride from the police. And finding out my cncealment is failing is a GOOD thing. Better than having a problem at an even less favorable moment. Plus grateful/apologetic make the rest of us look good.

Again... Welcome aboard.
