Yup, there you have it. I have never so much gone on a day hike without a sidearm. I've spoken with many Forest Service rangers, DOW officers, and what not at the trailhead, in the parking lot, or wherever. At all times with my sidearm clearly visible to them. In 20+ years of this, not a one has ever even mentioned it. Oh, except for one. We started discussing the merits of the traditional Keith type semi-wadcutter vs. the newer LBT type wide flat nose. He was a gun nut and my Ruger single action caught his eye.
