No. Nothing like that. It doesn't even mention 30.06

Was it anything like this?

Similar, yes. But I don't think it said "this includes licensed to carry"

It's definitely NOT a 51% sign. I know what a 51% sign looks like and that wasn't it. Besides: It's a gas station convenient store that sells gas, candy, chips, hot dogs, fountain drinks, can and bottled cokes and beer. Even if it were a liquor store, that doesn't fall under the 51% because it's not for consumption on the premises.

As for taking a picture...it's going to be a while before I go that way again.

If so, that is required by the TABC because they sell alcohol for off-premise consumption, and you can carry past it. if it actually said LICENSED, then it sounds like the store had their own version printed and it does not meet the TABC requirement and is illegal and the store could be fined for not posting the correct sign.

I did a little searching. I think the language is the sign YOU posted here in this old thread: http://www.texaschlforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=28922

Absolutely NOT. It was a transparent sign with black letters. It had some kind of Texas Alcohol agency abbreviation at the top AND it said LICENSED.

Today I stopped to get gas at a new gas station and convenient store in Leggett, TX (just north of Livingston, TX) on US 59. I noticed an official looking sign stuck to the window next to the door with the Texas State Alcohol agency that said something like this: "The unlicensed or LICENSED possession of a firearm in this business is against the law and is a penalty of $10,000 or 10 years in prison" Not exact language, but the point is it wasn't a .30.06 sign, a 30.07 sign or a 51% sign and it was just a gas station convenient store. I think they sold alcohol but their main business was candy, food, cigarettes and gas. Is this some new law? OR is this an improper posting?
