Re: But I didn't see it!
According to Texas https://www.txdps.state.tx.us/rsd/chl/r ... vrates.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; CHL'ers seem to be really good citizens when it comes to obeying the law. I ran the list for 2011 and found only two arrest and no convictions for (and I'm guessing cause the don't say it's 30.06 transgression). I suspect most go unreported unless some one gets belligerent and most all don't get reported because the gun was concealed well. In Federal and Municipal facilities, I expect metal detectors will prevent carry inside if someone has gone momentarily brain dead.

Re: But I didn't see it!
My major concern is not so much being asked to leave, being arrested or reported, but losing my CHL for what I consider a mental lapse / minor error (not a blatant refusal to obey the 30.06 sign as in a hospital emergency or entering a business thru door with no sign).
As for comparing 30.06 to speed limit signs - I can guarantee "I didn't see" won't fly, at least not for me. I entered a road way above where the speed limit sign was posted (country road isolated 2-lane) and was doing 55 in a 45. I later found the speed sign between where I entered and a major thru-fare. Costly experience, sheriff officer didn't care, county precinct judge didn't care.
