I wasn't aware that there were specific requirements for letter width and height of the sign. I'm going to get some slightly out of spec signs and watch people scratch their head over it's legality. I bet at least one person will break out a tape measure. I'm a butt hole.

I would honor their wishes and not carry their its obvious they do not want me carrying there. I also would not give them my business anymore and I would make the manager aware that they have lost a long term customer and that when I get home and post on the forms they will lose even more.

I would enjoy the movie with my family and I would not of said anything to the local manager. He's probably looking for a fight. Instead, when I got home I would call their corporate office, and based on their response I would decide if I wanted to do business with them anymore.
But at no point would I correct them on the format of the sign. If they want to post the sign, then they need to follow the letter of the law, and it's their responsibility. Otherwise, their sign is invalid, and some other licensed CHL may want to ignore the invalid sign and carry a gun into their theater. If you correct their sign, then it will become enforceable. Why help the idiots?

It seems that that only way theaters want any guns coming in is through the exit door by criminals. Not through the front door by law abiding citizens.

I don't carry a weapon to make a statement, nor do I carry to please others.
Concealed means nobody knows if I got it. No harm, no foul.

The worst thing you can do is tell the manager his sign isn't legal. If you do, he will make it legal and then you will be helping him take the rights away from the rest of us. This. No need to educate them if they won't educate themselves.

i don't get why they felt compelled to put the sign up but didn't make enough effort to do it right. seems pointless to me. Good point. In thinking about this, I would suspect that the owner/manager probably knows the law - and did it that way on purpose. He or she can point to the sign to make the "anti" crowd happy, while knowing full well.......

The way things should be are not often the way things are.....

I'd have got a refund, and politely told them why. I like that. Money talks - even if it's only a few diluted US dollars.

Sign isn't legal I'm going in carrying. I won't educate the manager how to make it legal and I won't come back to the business.

Concealed is concealed. Pretty sure unless they pat every single patron down or use metal detectors, they are not stopping anyone (criminal or CHL holder) from carrying whatever they want into their theatres. You do what you think is right, after all... it's your life you're playing with. I don't go to theatres anymore at all because of this reason alone- and if I did, I'd do what I think would give me the best chance of protecting myself and my family.
Wasn't born in Texas, but I got there as fast as I could.
