Thank you for the answer Keith - I still can't, for the life of me, understand/comprehend GV PD's stance...

I'd like to hear about your idea when the time is right.

Keith - I meant to ask you this, but didn't - what exactly did your conversation entail with the person at the GV PD? Did you point out what the wording of the sign is and what the wording of a valid 30.06 has to be (to be valid)? Just curious.

I would truly like* to see GV PD arrest someone for this and then have it go really bad for the PD - as in - successful suit for false arrest, establish case law on correct wording for 30.06 signage, judge scolding GV PD and Tarrant Co. DA (they'd have to agree to prosecute), etc....

NOTE: *like - as in I think it would be good for this to happen as it would set a legal precedent, not like as in looking forward to this happening to someone as I'm sure it could be a headache.

When these discussions come up, usually one of the first responses is a "do you want to be the test case?" remark. Well, let's seriously talk about that. How would one go about being the bona-fide test case for something like this? You wouldn't want to purposely un-conceal. So, how would you go about this without piling on additional charges?

Well, you might think so, but Grapevine PD will arrest you (or at least pursue charges) if you carry past the non-compliant signs at Grapevine Mills Mall and are discovered carrying.
