They are also incredibly welcoming and friendly. We have certainly speculated if this was in part due to the variety of arms we have seen. I still shudder when a truck pulled up next to us in a supermarket car park with a shot gun on prominent display in the back window. When the driver opened the door of the truck it was surprising that there was room for him to sit with all the weapons visible in the car. That is more weapons than I had seen in my lifetime. The local Sherriff pulled in beside him and they had a conversation. I think from the body language that the Sherriff was admiring the guns, but I can't be sure and I did not want to hang around to find out.
