Wink Concealed carry signs or the opposite?

This is the sign I had made up for the door on my business . I've had it up for a little over two months .Lots of comments..Today was best one. Guy I have never seen before opens the door half way and says:"Is it ok to come in I forgot my piece in my other truck"...... The first guy ever to see it told me "If every business in the US had that on there door I bet we would have a lot less problems". What do you think?

I saw a sign like that yesterday at a gas station/quick market in Tennessee. At first glance I thought it was a gun buster sign, but then I realized it was just the opposite. It really put a smile on my face.

Great sign!
If I saw that on a door, I might think it a NO firearms sign, simply because......you NEVER see a "firearms welcome" sign!

You Rule!

I came home from work one day and my wife had put signs on all windows and doors stating that CCW is welcome and allowed. She said that may make a criminal rethink breaking into our home.....I like it

If nothing else, I bet it puts smiles on a lot of faces.

LOVE IT! Why not see if you can get the local media (TV or Newspaper) to do a piece on it? Might start a "movement".

Default Signs

A Des Moines pizza establishment has a sign posted "no visible weapons allowed" which I take to mean "if you're carrying keep it covered, don't scare the squeamish ". A sensible approach in my book.

There was a story a while back about a bank in Texas changing their sign from no carry to a sign similar to yours.

Yup... It's a popular bank.




There are more and more businesses in TX displaying signs similar to yours. Use a Color Printer to display the circle around the gun as Green (as opposed to the No Guns Red Circle w/slash)
