I am with skieur on this one, I am reading this and thinking to myself, "My word all this gun talk. If you were walking around town with a gun strapped to your belt where I live people would probably be calling the police and diving under the local Tim Horton's coffee tables"
That being said I have more then once in a little town where I grab breakfast had a cowboy (yes real one) come in with a gun on him, however, not too disconcerting, as when the lady at the counter asks if he wants it in a box the reply is, "Ma'am, boxes don't fit in saddle bags then do they eh?" Sure enough right outside the window is his horse tied up. (There's my one gun story)
Anyways, personally I think as long as you are respectful as to what is private property (and if it is, make all the efforts to ask permission and if you can't get ahold of them, let it be) and take all precautions in telling someone where you are going and when you are getting back, shooting alone is no big deal.
