Nice to see one of the local Thai bars near me have stepped up security, well at least posting a notice for no hand guns allowed, one reason I do not frequent Thai bars.
However I prefer the one from my last overseas local, it still didn't stop the bad guys.

Security at Bars

Re: Security at Bars
I have no idea what it is like now, but a few years ago some bars in Phnom Penh had signs up saying "please check in your weapons here" at the door. And they were not joking!
May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil know`s you`re dead!

Lots of places overseas do that, it's a good idea.

Yes indeed. No worries now. Those posted notices are going to sort this situation out and never again will a weapon cross the threshold.

In Honduras they would check weapons at the door of bars, restaurants, etc, and get a claim check. They would also wand you going in just in case you forgot!! Wild west place for sure!!

The same in Manila, nearly all the bars have signs saying leave your weapons at security and they too use scanners.

Re: Security at Bars
They check you for weapons in a lot of the pubs and clubs in London, and if you don't have one, they give you one
