While the sign is not even close to being legal in Texas, the wording is a great example of why lawyers should not be allowed to write. You get the same effect with NO GUNS ALLOWED.

Anyone in the Corpus area notice the "No Armas" lettering on the Corpus Christi Trade Center? (A local Mexican market for those not in the area) I noticed that the "No Firearms/No Armas" lettering is on the two main doors but not on any others...including the one closest the bar. :cheers2: Anyway, that's one I'm not afraid to contest so I carry in there anyway.

As for the church sign, I always figured it was for us HAMs and CB'ers to turn off our amplifiers as we drove by so as not to interrupt the preacher with a big hearty "BREAK 1-9!" during the service. :lol::
The name's Ross! :)

This has to be my favorite part! I'm in the graphic's business and not once did a fancy picture keep a gun at home, must be an Ohio thing.

If I'm not mistaken, the above "gunbuster" sign serves as valid notice everywhere EXCEPT Texas?

No, some states require specific signage, and in some other states no kind of sign holds weight.

Texas 30.06 is a huge deal because the stakes are so high: trespassing is a Class C misdemeanor, but criminal trespass while armed is a Class A. In other states it might be as little as a $50 fine, and that's only if you refuse to leave while being told to do so in the presence of a police officer.
