    Gun nuts HATE being reminded of this, but historically carrying a concealed weapon was considered cowardly and something only a criminal would do. Because of that it was common for the practice to be illegal.

      That was in Ye Olden Days though. Nowadays if you walk into a Walmart with iron on your hip it’s going to freak people out and the panic will be more dangerous than the gun.
