Heh, bad imagery aside I am not sure where those would be legal. Here, at least, there are specific rules for signage — and that ain’t it. I’d assume TN has something similar.
Here in Texas there are legal specifications for the posted sign necessary for a business to opt out of otherwise legal concealed & open carry on the premises. One inch high letters in contrasting colors, specific wording, posted at all entrances, that sort of thing.
My credit union has a cirle&bar sign like the one in the post on its door, (except it is a Beretta silhouette) and no legal signage. I asked the manager about it years ago.
She said the sign was required by the credit union higher-ups, and she’d been told that it was legally meaningless by many other customers as well as about half her tellers (which means I bank at a well-protected credit union). And that when she’d told the higher-ups about the meaninglessness, she’d been told it was OK, and to keep the thing on the door.
Apparently this meaningless sign on the door satisfies antigun SJWs, while progun folk and CHL holders know they can ignore it because it is meaningless. Win-win.

As Bill Clinton said about another issue, “don’t ask, don’t tell”.
At our local Post Office they display an aversion to snub-nose revolvers. However, they don’t tell us what they’d prefer we carry on the premises, but I have to assume they favor semi autos. I just don’t understand why they care so much they’d put up a sign against the shorty revolver.

Good point. Sights are important.

I thought it just banned Glocks with aftermarket threaded barrels.
I could be wrong.

These signs have at least one proper use.

Might as well post a sign that says “Rob me”.

@Lyle, maybe they don’t want brass left on the floor if someone had to use their weapon on the premises.

Seen at the local home improvement store:
Why this sign doesn’t improve homes at all. Whoever buys it should get their money back.
