Every time I see the Baretta Ghost Buster I tell Mom & Wife good thing we dont carry 92s. Since none of us can say the "G" word that one does not apply either. Never owned either.

I begin to take a little offense when someone treats a Smith badly & marks all over a picture I want to admire before we all 3 enter w/ Springer, Sig & Kel-Tec. :lol:

Why does everyone refer to this as a "Ghostbuster" sign? I've seen it referred to as "Gun Buster" sign, which seems more appropriate.
I know it's related to the popular movies, but it strikes me wrong to be so generic.
I believe there is safety in numbers..
numbers like: 9, .22, .38, .357, .45, .223, 5.56, 7.62, 6.5, .30-06...

My mom pointed out a ghostbuster sign shortly after I got my CHL. I whispered back, "It's okay, Mom. That's a Beretta. I don't even own one of those. I'm legal here."

The NRA & TSRA are a bargain; they're much cheaper than the cold, dead hands experience.

Means nothing to a CHL holder with out a 30.06 sign to go with it. ;-)
Not to be picky...but...it has no meaning unless it is posted at the CHL holder's place of employment...then it is considered effective notice to the CHL holder to not carry at the workplace.

That sign has NO effect on criminal consequence to an employee. Unless the wording is 30.06, the employee can be fired, but not prosecuted.

Can you see why folks sometimes complain about contradictory information coming from CHL instructors?

Read my post carefully...you will see that I NEVER mentioned criminal consequences...what I did say is the sign does have meaning to a CHL holder if the sign is placed at the CHL holder's place of employment in that the sign is effective notice to the CHL holder/employee to not carry on the premise...Now, that is accurate information...plain and simple
