Saw this on THR. Looks like the stores are in Fairfax.

Faux "No Firearms Permitted" Signs Mentioned this in another thread but thought I should pass along the word.
Last week I noted a new (and pretty official looking) "No firearms permitted" sign in the front door of the local Dicks. Now I thought this was really weird as they sell firearms and supplies.
Since I know several of the guys there pretty well I thought I'd ask the manager about the sign. He was shocked, had no idea the sign was there and removed it immediately. He said (and I have reason to believe him as I've known him a little while) that nobody in the store would have put one up as there is no such policy.
Last night I get a phone call from one of the salesguys (another cowboy action shooter) who told me that they found ANOTHER sign in the door again and then noticed identical signs in several of the nearby shops. When he asked the managers of the other places they knew nothing about the signs and all removed them.
Now we're suspicious that -somebody- is going around posting these faux signs (maybe as a prank or something, I don't know).
