I do. Wanna see my collection of assault weapons and cruise missiles?
Seen 'em, thanks. But you do realize that contrary to your statement
what you suggest IS legal where you live.

The fact that most people don't do it has nothing to do with whether it's
legal or not, in the Commonwealth, which it is.
But practically speaking, people don't usually do it. It's legal for
employers
to forbid weapons on company property, etc.
It's a complex equation. I COULD walk into a mall in Arlington with an
M1911A1 on my hip, legally. Or into a convenience store in Galax.
But I'd only do it to make a point. That is to prove you know nothing
about gun law :-).
Frankly, would you want to tote 3 pounds of steel around to make a point?
I didn't think so. Reasonable people make reasonable choices. Not
unreasonable statements of quasi-misunderstood "fact".
But you have the Commonwealth's permission to wear unregistered iron
(openly) anywhere you like inside its boundaries. Somehow I think the
criminals there have been apprised of this.
You can also get a concealed carry permit without too much hoop
jumping but you'll have to prove you know the laws, aren't a criminal,
and aren't insane.
Apologies, but this falls within technology and law.
