Also known as LGOC is another topic entirely. Many pro-handgun-OC individuals and groups think LGOC is a very bad idea except for deep in the woods where it can be explained-away as hunting.

Even in the woods, it would look odd in my region (northeast) to be seen with an AR type rifle for any reason. Customarily (and by law), rifles of any type would be locked in the vehicle's trunk or in the hunting cabin unless carried afield.

Even in handgun-OC-friendly areas in the northeast, LGOC in a populated area (except smaller villages during hunting season) would most likely end up with a police response. Not pretty.
