CCing with no CCW in CA it depends on rather or not the hand gun is registered to you.
if it is, its a misdemeanor, normally a fine and you can't buy a gun for 5 years. you can get 30 days in jail, but thats pretty rare.
If its not registered to you, felony 6 months min.
getting cuaght in a biz past a sign, generally nothing unless you refuse to leave. ( which I think is wrong, I like the tx 30.06 law)
Now if the police are called, your not really going to have a good day. even if you have a CCW or are a LEO. You could lose your CCW( most countys, you would get it yanked) as well as being charged with disturbing the peace.( maybe more,)

The answer depends on three things
1 where (state/city)
2 If the gun is legal and you are entiled to own it
3 The circumstances (a school, a bar, drunk, or in your front yard investigating a noise)
Generally, CCW with a legal weapon is a misdemeanor (THIS VARIES FROM STATE TO STATE) aggravating circumstances may apply. Generally, I figure your odds of getting caught with the gun by a cop are about equal to or higher than having to use it.If I can't carry legally I don't. As far as the signs, TAB has it right. You are trespassing if you don't leave when asked.

http://floridaconcealedcarry.com/Forum is a great forum for us in FL. (my screen name is Soverign if you want to say HI)
But carrying w/o a CCW is felony bad, and only place not allow for CCW to take is normal like govt buildings, LEO stations, schools, bars... But a business cant use a no gun sign. If found out they can ask you to leave and if you dont then call the fuzz as you would be trespassing.

In Ohio it's a felony unless you can prove, I believe it is called "Affirmative Defense" that you have a need to carry--large sum of money/valuables, you have been threatened or something like that. Provision is made in the law for a temp./quick CCW if you have been threatened but it still takes a little time and is no good to you util you are able to get it! It is my understanding that if you are in a place posted "No Guns" and it is on the prohibited list (school,bar, hospital and etc.)it is a felony. If it is posted and not on the list they can only ask you to leave.
