I've had one of those in the trunk of my car for two years now, along with
a certificate from a firearms instructor (a requirement).  I was surprised
at how jumpy he was around other people with loaded weapons, but after
thinking about it for nanosecond, I decided he had to treat everyone the
same way because the average citizen doesn't know that much about the
handling of firearms.
 
That day on the shooting range when I qualified, I was outgunned by a
nurse. (-:   I haven't processed the app.  Most would be astonished about
how much law you have to know before a license is granted and the granting
of one is not a reason for you to shoot someone (it says here).
