The no firearms signs have no weight Bob, except to notify the person that he is not allowed in with a firearm.
If he ignores the sign, he can be charged with trespassing because he has been told to NOT come in if he has a gun.
I have a similar problem on the farm. Virginia law allows dog hunters to enter posted property to retrieve their dogs.
They cannot take a gun or vehicle. They use that law as an excuse to hunt posted property.
I get convictions based on game camera pictures of them with a gun passing the NO TRESPASSING signs.
