I was at Andrew Toyota on 12/31/12 and they are posted, after calling Don Jacobs, to save a wasted trip and getting an ear full from a salesman, I was told all Toyota dealerships are posted.

I find that hard to believe. I mean, we aren't the first state to get rights restored (though with a permission slip).

I was at Smart Toyota in Madison last week for regular maintenance work and I saw no signs on any of the service doors when actively looking for them. I didn't go through the show room or those doors so I can't speak to them.

That’s one of the reasons I posted; I thought the amount of pure hate that erupted when I asked the "sales man" at Don Jacobs might lead to such a response. But I assure you Andrew Toyota is posted, I did not see if the Chevy side had a sign.

Talk with the owner and/or GM and let them know all the reasons why they lost the sale.

Fox Convenience Appleton

One place that is listed as "infringing" is Fox Convenience. I work for FC and Todd the owner is a member of the NRA and ordered all signs removed. FC is open to OC and concealed carry. If you find a store that still has a sign posted please talk to the manager and have them take it down.

Good to hear. :) I took them off the list. :banana:

Just doing my part

I actually emailed him expressing my concern after being held up and he was shocked to hear the signs were still up. Apparently they where all old signs that where supposed to be removed back in 2008 but some people put it off and then just forgot. Now I can work overnights without worry because I have my sidearm for protection.

Ban saukeville gun club

Unfortunately there aren't many gun clubs by my residence so when I found the Saukville Gunclub I was ecstatic upon attending the first meeting I was extremely disappointed to find out that they have no regard for concealed carry or open carry members coming from the holster is not allowed as well as other reasonable drills that involves concealed carry scenarios. I wrote them a letter nonhostile in nature requesting that they return my money because I returned my membership with the letter still waiting on the money. I also encouraged them to rethink their stances on our Second Amendment rights because they were making a mockery of them. Their ignorance of what is going on the nation is kind of mind-boggling

Acura of Brookfield

Posted at least on the used car side when I stopped in recently. Have to assume the main showroom as well.

Didn't see it on the way in - transparent "sign" with red/black gunbuster & text. Only saw it coming back out.

Oh. I guess they're part of Zimbrick which I see is listed already.

Gotta say, I'm glad I found this site. I plan on getting my CCW soon, but was curious if anyone could tell me about Alchemy burgers in Madison. I don't get out to Mad town too often, unless I'm going to see my girlfriend, and wanted to know in advance if anyone saw a gunbuster sign.

Edit: I know this is an open carry site, which is what I intend to do. I just figure the permission slip will help me out if the situation calls for a coat, or driving around town.

Outpost Natural Foods

Outpost Natural Foods recently posted no weapons allowed, I used to carry there all the time. I sent a letter via their webpage contact form informing them of my opinion on their new signs. Also not renewing my membership this year. That place is too expensive anyway.
