The bank managers know there is no state or federal law or regulation requiring posting anit-gun signs. they merely lack character and are passing the buck.

At the time of passage, Nations Bank or Bank of America -whatever the name was at the time, said that the bank has a general policy against firearms but realizes that some of the customers are armed. They declined to post 30;06 or any other notice. This was a real non-statement but the banks remain un-posted. Most banks are not posted anti-chl.

The Manager of the Fedelity State Bank of Texas at Lake Shore drive and north 19th street in Waco 30:06ed his bank just as soon as the law passed. One of the customers had a business up the street and regularly made evening deposits there. He complained and the bank manger told him that the signs were required by the state banking commission.

The customer knew this wasn't true and so did the bank manager. When he threatened to move his account, the manager told him that he could carry his gun in just as long as he didn't try to stop any bank robberies with it.

The bank is at a fairly isolated intersection and, at that time, the front door was surrounded by hedges. I believe they removed those. The rest of it is not a great problem because that silly little bank doesn't have many customers.
