I was in a gun shop in Atlanta a couple of weeks ago, and as soon as I opened the door, a recorded message said "If you are entering this business with a weapon, declare so NOW." There was a sign at eye level right inside the door that said exactly the same thing. The guy working the counter said the owner put it in a couple of years ago when two guys came in with shotguns wrapped in blankets and just hovered around the counter for a few minutes. The clerk had triggered a silent alarm and two other employees were locked and loaded behind a two-way mirror. Those guys came within seconds of getting blasted and it turned out they were just a couple of goobers who inherited a couple of single-shot shot guns.
