You aint in Israel, carry one in the pipe.
The key here is what Prometheus said: HUGE difference between accidents and negligence. Always test the gun's safeties (with it unloaded) before carrying the gun (not necessarily every time, but after each shooting session) and always have a holster designed for the weapon (as an improper one can cause an ND).
Dont horse with it or "show everyone" the gun and keep safety a priority!
