Chilino's Mexican restaurants has added gunbuster signs

[freeranger]

As a CC'er, I've talked to several managers of surrounding businesses about their posting and how it may impact their business as word spreads. I support OC'ers even though I'm likely going to continue CC'ing.

Some of you might want to stop by the Chelino's on May and Hefner for lunch and tell Armando Jr. that you came by because you heard he took the gunbuster signs down. If you do, I recommend carrying concealed to show courtesy for them.

I would if I were in the area. Unfortunately I got the same canned response to my email listed about. Pretty pathetic.

it worked that day, in that circumstance. One can only hope all situations and owners will be as open and honest as the next. #ccwforlife

The Taqueria Sanchez truck parked on NW 10th and Tulsa does not have a gun sign of any kind...I'm just saying...

I love that place. Their tacos got me through 2 semesters of night school at OSU OKC.

Went back to Chelino's at Hefner and May today - the signs are still gone. I talked to the Manager and he said someone had also complained about the gun buster signs at the Norman restaurant so they removed those signs as well.

If you're craving Mexican food in the Edmond area, both Alvarados (on 2nd St across from UCO) and Abuelo's (on Memorial) have no posted signs promoting or opposing concealed or open carrying of firearms. Alvarados isn't anything spectacular, it's par or slightly above par food and Abuelo's is pretty tasty, but a chain, so..

Somebody a couple of years ago posted a sign of the door of the Mexican restaurant at I-44 and Classen~ish (other side of the highway from Chili's, big gold restaurant) that had a sign stating lawfully carried firearms are welcome.

That might be the place to frequent now.

Milagro's. My father and I eat there at least once a week and we both gladly carry in there. Sometimes open and sometimes concealed.
