It needs to be 181"sq. with 1.5 ariel font IRRC. So it looks to be.
NOW whether or not it's compliant doesn't matter, they've stated their opinion on the topic. Just leave them a "no guns=no $$$" card.
I will stronly urge you not to point out to them that signs may or may not be compliant, and that they carry no weight of law. There is no benifit to the community by doing so. It will only embolden the anti's to get legislation passed that makes the signs carry the weight of law.

The magic number 187 sq. in. is 11" x 17", standard tabloid paper size, so that's what you usually see, though I assume 13.6747943" square would be legal.

Quote: I assume 13.6747943" square would be legal Sorry Pat, 13.6747943 square is only 186.9999991 square inches. Not the required 187 square inches.
